Spring has finally arrived on Whidbey Island. It just took until Summer to get here. Spring has been wet and cool. This is not all together a bad thing. No need to water the plants! But now we are in a hot spell. Hot around here is in in the 80s (F). Now I have to water! Our friend Kim planted the boxes on our deck. They are now erupting. This is as pretty as they have been and I've put together a Flickr set to capture some of this wonderful color: Summer deck flowers. I've put up large pictures so be sure to click on "All Sizes" or click on "Slideshow" when you get to the Flickr set.
