Spring!!!!.....



Thanks to everyone for the house hunting well-wishes. We're still looking and praying for the right thing. We know it'll happen soon.

My husband and I just returned from Carmel/Monterey for our anniversary. Carmel is full of lovely cottages and gardens. I'll try to post pictures Friday.

The Exeter Garden Club's Spring Event (tea) is next month, so I've been running around trying to prepare. Our theme is 'Enchanted Sweet Peas.' It'll be a lovely tea with plenty of gift items up for raffle.

It's so nice to see the signs of Spring. Seeing bulbs emerge and the roses come back from pruning after a long winter is encouraging in a way. With the economy how it is, it feels like it's been a long winter, but I am reminded that 'to everything there is a season.' The current hard times are temporary, even though they may feel permanent. The promise of spring is just around the corner.
