| It is FINALLY blooming!!!! The extra soil and a few applications of Miracid have improved the look of this bush. It is looking a lot greener than it did at the beginning of April. |

This flowerbed looks a lot better and so does our old carport with the
addition of the lattice. A few years ago we put in sewage service and the blue thing
in the flowerbed is the sewage vent pipe. So we stopped using the carport to park
our vehicle, so we wouldn't hit the pipe. We have been using it for wood storage (for our wood burner) and our heating oil tank. We installed the plastic lattice to cover the opening and dress up our storage area. It makes the flower bed look better, by keeping your eyes from being distracted by the items we are storing.

| We topped the flower bed with top soil and peat moss. Then we
planted flower seeds of several different varieties. Picture was taken on May 24th. |
