EDiM for May 23rd & 24th

Here is for today. I love the sound of bells &
chimes tinkling in the breeze. I think I got this
from my mom who brought back Swiss cow
bells and hung them in the trees.  So I have
bells and chimes throughout the gardens 
and our woods to enjoy. Not sure what the elk
and wildlife think!
 I shall be in the garden tomorrow 
planting flowers I got yesterday.
Went a little overboard and they need to 
get in the ground pronto.
So here is my painting for the 24th. When I
see these opening I immediately go into 
gardening mode, but this Spring has been
so cold. But these provided all the
sunshine I needed.
I'll be back probably stiff and sore
but it's so worth it.

Hi Sharon,
You are a going concern with your sketches... I love them all..
Hope you get all your planting done. We have had so much rain we are very behind in that respect...
The tulips have been especially beautiful this year... Too bad I broke my camera!!!!
Dropped it and that was the end!
Going to town to-morrow to buy a new one!
Maybe I can get going on my blog again. Lots to show and more for Etsy ,.
Please continue to inspire me
oxox
((((hugs))))

So cold here, too. Wonder if the chimes and bells prevent critters from getting into your gardens. That would be a very nice bonus.

Stiff and sore - that`s me after two days in the flower beds. I didn`t get a thing planted, but there are fewer weeds!
Have fun in the garden - and I hope there`s a little wind so that you can enjoy the sound of the bells.

Great sketches Sharon! Enjoy your garden day, I'm off to the nursery for some more plants today also.

I've got chimes tinkling in my yard too, Sharon! I love that soft, magic sound. Your sketches are lovely. You've truly captured the essence of spring! Enjoy your time in the garden. Hugs, Terri xoxo
