How the Flowers Looked on Monday

The drainpipe had beautiful icicles on Monday afternnon...
...and this was our equinox sunset...the tops of the mountains were getting snow!

The snow melted nicely into the ground to water the daffodils, tulips, and aliums on the first evening of spring.
Today (March 23) it was so sunny and warm, we went out in cropped pants and clogs and weeded the flowerbed along the driveway and re-potted the geraniums from my bedroom window (a gift from Gramma Suzie Blatter, who is now on a mission in Croatia). We will try hard to keep the flowers thriving so they are still beautiful when Gramma Suzie comes home! Heidi ate dirt as usual, but it was refreshing and gorgeous outside. Hooray for spring!

I love it when the flowers start to peek out of the dirt.

Yeah! Spring is getting to Montana. The flowers are going to look beautiful outside your new home. I got an email from gramma suzie the other day. It was good to hear from her. She shared pictures of her old photo shop- looks like the are tearing it down. What is going in its place?

I don't know what's going in the old Western Photo lot, but it is nothing but a hole in the ground now--a vast space between the Auto Parts place and the house/office that was Gasparro Real Estate (and is now some kind of astrology/ day-spa something or other). It is a really nice location--too bad we didn't buy it and make a Melin Agency/ Melin Studio building! Rich is currently buying lighting and backdrops in ebay, though, and we'll have a studio somewhere soon!

Little bit of Mr. King for ya, slightly altered of course.

Can we be first in line for Pictures? LOL. That will be awesome to have your own studio.
