I love going on long walks with my dad. It’s a good time for us to talk about anything and everything, or enjoy the outdoors in silence. A couple of weeks ago we explored a new to us park close to our old house.

{Springbrook} February Thaw
Today is tax day. I hope your taxes are done and let’s have some fun! Here are some pictures from a walk I took in February because it was too beautiful to NOT go outside! How was your Easter weekend?

My cousin’s grandma sent me the sweetest Christmas gift this year, which was something I wasn’t expecting! She gave me a Red Lion Amaryllis bulb kit to grow. In the past, I usually tend to kill any plant given to me so I apologized to the bulb as I planted it (upside down) and then waited to see what would happen. First thing to happen? I replanted it right side up and then it grew! The flowers were a lovely bright spot by the window on dreary winter days.
This is now the SECOND plant I’ve kept alive so I think the moral of this story could be…you CAN teach an old dog new tricks, haha! But really, I think my black thumb is turning into a green one and someday I will enjoy having a bigger garden than just 2 plants. 🙂
Are you a gardener? What advise would you give a someone starting out?
