Rain, Rain!

Yesterday “my yard man” showed up and started clearing out low limbs on my trees, putting out some “no weed” stuff and getting ready for the soon to come grass mowing season. He was supposed to come back today and do a few more things for me. For some reason, he didn’t show up today. This is what my back yard looked like late afternoon today:

This is in the corner formed by the patio and the house. You can also see the water in the neighbor’s yard:

Here you can see the water running thru the other neighbor’s yard:

Signs of Spring Abound

Having been stuck inside for a few days, it was really fun to go thru the park yesterday and take a few photos.

The Forsythia (called yellow bells at our house) were in full bloom:

also the Jonquils (Easter Lilies):

Of course, last night and this morning, we’re having lots of rain and thunderstorms. Another sure sign of Spring!
