Our Beautiful Bradford Pear Trees
April 3-08
The area's Bradford pear Blossoms look like banks of snow!!!! Sooooooooooooo Beautiful. The green leaves are beginning to take over and soon the blossoms will be gone. I wonder how they had the stamina to bloom with our crazy weather---so cold and much too wet. Today the temperature is in the 30's, cloudy and windy. We are promised some sunshine later today and much warmer tomorrow, however, our forecast calls for rain 4 days next week.
We need lots of sunshine to dry the ground enough so we can get the garden plowed. Need to get the seeds in the ground so we can have garden veggies when our company comes in August!!! We also need garden veggies to help on the grocery bill every day!!!! The green beans we canned last Summer sure do help---taste good too!!! The grocery prices continue to rise and there seems to be no end in sight. I am paying $4.00 a gallon for 2% milk, $2.00 for a dozen eggs. I really feel for the families who have a lot of mouths to feed. They would have to have good paying jobs to afford the "necessities" of life.
Today we are expecting Jaron to drive here from college. Possibly we will also see Devin for the week-end. We are glad they are close enough to come home often.
Stay safe, warm and dry!!!
Love you,
Dortha
