Spring Is Coming

The Texas weather is warming up, and the landscape is greening.  So it is time to work in the yard.  In the photo at the right Lee moves fill dirt to a low spot in the front yard with his favorite toy, a 23 HP Kubota diesel tractor.  He has moved three dump truck loads of dirt with the tractor and front end loader.

We are building two raised beds for a vegetable garden, and we are planting trees.  We have planted a key lime and a orange and will be planting a pear as well as 10 evergreens to block the nearby campground from view.

Cec is taking the Master Gardener course in Walker County, and we are benefitting from her new knowledge.  We have also joined the Walker County Beekeeers and will probably also put in two bee hives.
