Since my DH retired it seems we are getting our garden planted later
and later. We used to have dates by which things got done but it
seems we are on 'Island Time' now, and things have changed around us
too!!
NASCAR changing the date of the Monster Mile race by moving it back 2
weeks is a real pain. We used to shoot for the end of May to be all
planted and flowered in our beds. Then Sons Birthday, and mine 3 weeks
later and the ensuing celebrations, it's all messed up.
Can't put stuff in too early or it might frost......sometimes it
seems the universe is scheming against our plans!!!!
I guess we just have to do less partying and hosting and get down to
the really important stuff......or IS that the important
stuff???? :~)

You spent too much time trying to find that Richie, richie,richie bird
and your garden got neglected. ;-).
Seriously, congratulations on getting it all planted. I retired many
years ago and it seems the planting has finished later every year
since then. We won't even get some things planted this year because
our season isn't long enough to make it worthwhile ;-(.
