G is for Garden, Green and Gross


G is for garden which is still just a plot of dirt. But there is progress. A week ago it was still yard and now it's got some rows and we'll start planting some tomorrow. We are not very good gardeners but will put some seeds and plants in the ground and see what happens. 

Next G is for green. After the browns of winter, when even the pine trees were dull, it's nice to see all the spring greens spreading. 

Unfortunately, all this lovely green means there's pollen everywhere. Which brings me to G is for gross which is how I'm feeling since I'm apparently very allergic to pine trees and more. Last week there were great clouds of pollen blowing out of the pines and coating everything. I'd never seen anything like it. Whoosh...
