SPING has SPRUNG a LEAK

Well it is not a lot of white stuff, but for the first full day of SPRING it is mucho disappointo.  The shower for Erin is still on in California MO.  Carol will attend, but I will transplant some small veggie starts into larger containers and clean some rocks so that when the weather warms, I can get back to extending the height of the rock wall below the main deck.

Weather reports indicate that Eric's will have 70's while we will be lucky to break out of the 30's.  KC airport had 7-8 inches of snow last night.  Forecast is for more rain and snow throughout the day.  It is strange, as the rain clouds are moving from the southeast to the north and west!!

Ava and Savana's Party Mar 14, 2010

It was a fun day!!  Grandmas got their "fixes" with the kids.  Dora the Explora was the primary gift theme and Alec was lots of help with opening and "sharing" Ava's gifts!!

Alec liked to hold the screw top for the bottle in his mouth and run around.  He looked a lot like Porky Pig!!  This was the only picture I got Kim.  Wish it had been straight on face, sorry.

Savana, sorry I didn't get any shots of you!!

Some things around the cove. Enjoy the sunshine!!

Our snowdrops are rather droopy, but they do give us hope that spring and green thingies are in the future!!

I have started hand digging out the end of the cove where the boat ramp used to be obvious.   The wierd shape in the middle of the picture is a cleared spot down to  concrete ramp which is under 12-18 inches of muck, rock, gravel, sticks, etc.  I'm shoveling most of it up against the concrete seawall to reduce the erosion that has occurred over the past 8-10 years.  Come on down and get your excercise!!   The Wheel barrow to the upper left and the 2 x 5 gallon pails above the cleared spot will give a size and depth to the scene
