I'm a terrible gardner - neglectful and unmotivated - but somehow the three small clematis plants I stuck in the ground last year made it through the winter and are growing all over the inexpensive vinyl trellises I stuck in with them.

Frankly, I'm amazed they survived - last year was a hot one and I wasn't good about watering them consistently. And I'm totally astounded that this one put out this huge purple flower.

I got a lot done today - mulched, composted, planted a couple of pepper plants and some strawberries, dug all the ingrown grass out of the "kitty garden, and planted new coral bells and catnip there.

And then David dug a hole and went and got Stuey's little "tea caddy" that his ashes were in and we put the little tissue-wrapped packet of ashes in... yes, got a little choked up as we dropped fresh dirt in, and then replaced the little "birdwatching" cat statue over the place.

There was no early start, and I had to take a couple of breaks when it got too warm, but I only have one more bed that needs mulch, and as it happens I've got one more bag of mulch for it. Hurrah.

David got up and cleaned out gutters, but left the orange 5 gallon bucket on the roof, prompting a "Mah bucket iz on teh roof!" moment.

I'm finally getting geared up to add another big set to my Flickr photos. Also, on my main blog, I've got a photos page started but it's not ready for prime time.
