Special Areas Waiting For Spring

All we need is a good rain and a few warm days for Spring to really start popping up here. Maybe the rain will come on Wednesday - I sure hope so. In the mean time there are a lot of areas just waiting for it.

Memorial Flat Spot
The first flat area that my Dad built in around 1980. If it wasn't for the little tufts of green coming up in Wild Flower Garden #1, in front of it, the area looks more like Fall or Winter. I do have to get in there and rake up those leaves. The compost bins need that carbon.

Mushroom Rest
Mushroom Rest is still nothing more than a tree stump. This year it needs to be transformed into the whimsical area.

Scruff Oak Grove
Honestly, this looks like a bunch of dead little trees. I know it will come back, but it sure doesn't look very inviting right now. The good part is that I need to rake up those leaves, for compost, too.

Bonsai Oak
This sit spot also needs a lot of work. I love the fact that this Scruff Oak grew to look kind of like a Bonsai Tree - you can actually see the curve in the truck in this picture. The area overlooks the cliff and beautiful nature below. It will be a wonderful place to just sit and talk with friends.
