Pulling the grass, dandelions and weeds out of the flower beds this morning since the garden is too muddy to get into. My glads are finally up as are the iris's and the daffodils. And the peonies are about to bloom. Lilacs, apricots and pears are/were blooming. I reseeded some green beans yesterday in my bare feet since the mud would have sucked my shoes off..always keep the garden hose handy..lol

Sure hope my apple trees get some good growth this year..between the 8 month winter and the deer nibbling they've gotten off to a slow start. This rainy period might just be what the doctor ordered.

Ah the sweet reward of the first tomato of the season... And oh was it tasty! And it was a Black Krim. Also have had several of the Walla Walla onions and they are so good I'll never plant another variety.
