5/23/09 CRABAPPLES AND LILACS ARE BLOOMING





Saturday, 7:30 AM. 52 degrees, wind S, light to moderate. The sky is mostly clear and the barometer predicts rain which we need badly.
The Reiten Boatyard Condominium planting job is almost finished, requiring one more day’s work next week .
Crabapples are blooming in profusion around town, and wild plums, which grow in large colonies, in the countryside. Lilacs are just beginning to bloom. It is a beautiful, long spring, even if it has often been cold and we need rain.
