Patti - the stream is looking good! How do you "foam the falls"???? I'm not sure what that means, but it sounds cool.......literally! LOL

Jan - I went out with my camera this morning and took a couple shots of what's blooming here now. This first one is for you!

Before I show you the blooms, I must share an awesome experience we had this morning with all of you. At 6:50 this morning, my DH and I were waking up on our sunporch with a cup of coffee, when all of a sudden, a very large bald eagle actually landed in our yard just beyond our patio. We were stunned to see how majestic and large he was so close up. We see them up in the air over the river often, but they fly so high, you don't really get the concept of how large they are. I ran for the camera, but he was gone (with lizard in claws) when I got back. On our walk, we kept looking for him along the River, but he was soaring elsewhere. That image will stay with me forever!

I planted a whole lot of stuff today. My patio garden is beginning to transform....such fun! More photos to come, for sure.
