Dont know what it is going to do today but we had a melting weekend and the lake at my back gate is back again! I tried hard to keep all the snow clear from the back gate patio this winter but two late dumps of snow filled in the spot in front of the garbage and I could not get it clear - then solid ice - finally melting. I 've beem going out every morning, cracking and clearing off the ice in the hopes there would be less to melt!

Past weekend was the Hort. Soceity Garden show - held this year for first time out at Spruce Meadows.I worked in the membership booth on Saturday and froze as they have to keep the doors open because so many people coming in, Yesterday I worked in costume at the Lougheed House Booth plus helped out a bit at the Peony booth across from us.Great crowds in fact sometimes too many people - need to tweak that a bit next year. Albertarosey (Jane) brought me a tray of Foxglove seedlings which I have to get potted up today.

I finally spent my Xmas gift ## from my brother - 2 Garden Twists ( variation of a obelisk ), one silver wind spinner, and this interesting plaque!
