Blooming Flowers and Trees

Both our Eastern Redbud, Cherry, and Almond trees have bloomed, marking the beginning of spring. We have also seen our daffodils, tulips, and hyacinths bloom.

Our New Donation Box

Over the past few months, Al has been working on painting our new donation box. He repurposed an old toolbox of his to replace the rusted one we had before. Ross added the mailbox slot for paper money and a coin slot for change. It has two coats of polyurethane, so it should withstand the weather for a long time.

Concrete Project Completed

The pouring of the remaining concrete wall in the back of the garden has been completed. This completes the entire back wall, preventing rats from digging underneath the fence and burrowing in an area that receives little to no sun.
