Wonderful Weather

 The past few days have been so nice!  Temperatures in the 70's during the day and dipping into the 40's at night.  I bought some vegetable plants at Ace Hardware and was gifted some from Christy and Rik at Country Feed Store. I potted up a tomato, Italian Parsley and Basil in this big pot. It's ceramic so it hold down this table when it's windy.  Happens everyday!  Great breezes flowing through the windows.

                 

In this smaller pot I have Lemon Thyme, smells so nice...

In this pot I have a green bell pepper and a jalapeno, also planted some cilantro and basil seeds

I have planted more seeds, between rain showers.  I'll keep you updated!

We've been walking two or three times a day around the campground.  We have a great multi use trail along the highway that we need to stretch our legs on. 

 

Yesterday we went to the Panacea Oyster Fest with Sonsearae and Chris.  Boy was it popular!  Wooley Park was the setting and it was still mushy from recent rains.  Not sure what it will look like after a weekend of trampling.  Most of the vendors had oysters, cooked and raw.  Fried shrimp and hot dogs were available also.  One section, that you had to but tickets in advance, had beer vendors.  

We also toured a million dollar home!  Chris and Sonsearae had an appointment for a viewing and we tagged along.  Nice digs!  Several bedrooms and bathrooms in the main house, including one in the loft.  It also had several living areas.  Formal and family type.  Nice sunporch that was about the length of our rig.  Out back was an outdoor kitchen, pool and huge hot tub.  Beyond that was the pool house set up like a small house.  Perfect for us!  Out of everyone's price range but it was fun to look at.

Besides the squirrels we have had wrens, chickadees, a couple of squabbling mockingbirds and a dove or two.  Still no hummingbirds

I Won't Lie

We have had some rainy weather the past two weeks and we were getting cabin fever.  But Spring showers bring on the flowers.  The trees have started leafing out, but first they dumped pollen in the air and the sneezing started!  The past few days have been lovely and we've taken advantage of it by getting out and walking around the campground.  Boy!  Are we out of shape!  But it feels good to be out in the fresh air and sunshine.

Not my favorite  but it's always fun to try.  The center panels are supposed to look distressed but the BOLD flower was a mistake.  Stampin' Up! supplies

Wendy over at Lovin Stampin' inspired this set of note cards.  5 x 3 1/2 inches.  All SU supplies

Quiet Meadow stamps and Dies.  Harvest Meadow DSP.  This set is one of my favorites from Stampin' Up!

I hope wherever you are Spring is happening.  Each day that passes bring us warmer temperatures.  I've potted up some veggies and planted seeds!

March came in like a lamb

We have enjoyed some beautiful weather so far this month.  Seventies during the day, as low as lower 40's at night.  Which is perfect for sleeping.  

Unfortunately we each have had head colds for the past two weeks or so and it has curtailed our activities.  I'm pretty much over it, just tired.  Jim is still sneezing and has the sniffles.  We have both slept .... a lot! Couple nights Jim did 12 hours.  Naps figured into each day.  Neither of us can remember when we caught colds in the recent past.  Eating wasn't high on the list either.  But we muddled through.

Our new site here at Wildwood affords us to be more nosy...tee hee.  We can see more rigs and folks coming and going.  Our street side neighbor left this morning and now a little casita is in it's place. We see dog walkers and folks on Golf Carts (with and without golf bags).  The neighbor behind us finally returned from his off shore job.

Now that it has warmed up a bit there are flowers blooming and trees budding out.  You should see all the Azaleas we've seen just going to the stores in Crawfordville!  Beautiful!

I hope Spring is slowly creeping into your days
