April showers bring May flowers as the saying goes; We have had some well-needed
rainfall this past week.
I had a couple inches here at my house, there were different amounts around the local area, all was welcomed. The grass has really greened up and the flowering trees have started to bloom out, love this time of the year. Everything is so fresh and new.
I am looking so forward to planting my garden and some flowers if the weather will ever stay above 50 degrees.

It was a bittersweet weekend for my family; Aunt Judy Million sold her home on Fortune Ave and all the contents of the home. Many memories in that house will our families.
