Spring continues to roll in here in Raleigh!

The Redbuds are blooming!

  
And the Persian lilacs

  
And the German irises are budding

  
And the oxalis are coming up!

   
I have planted seeds in the vegetable garden for lettuce, arugula, and basil but I am having issues with squirls and birds digging through the soil! More on that later.

On a sad note, Gus, the pitt bull/ black lab mix I adopted in 2009 and who is in so many picture here and on Instagram has been diagnosed with lung cancer. He is having a consultation next week at North Carolina State University Vet School so be expecting an update later…
