Victoria Day!

I overheard one of the grade 12s in the hallway Friday afternoon..."Can you believe it! It's the long weeend of May already!! That means when we come back, it'll be almost June exams and GRADUATION!!!"
So true! We've enjoyed the weekend so far, BBQing every chance we can, and gardening! Philip has been diligently working in the yard, hauling up the strawberry patch, and reworking it. It looks so much better! I got my hanging baskets planted, and dug the trench around one of the gardens, to get the lawn edging put in. The black flies got the best of me, so I came in and got some supper. Nice to get a couple of loads of laundry out on the clothesline - one thing I really missed last summer. I love the smell of fresh laundry! Picked out some of the rhubarb patch, too...planning on getting some rhubarb punch made for the freezer- always a treat to have on hand for those hot days!
I think I will have the gals over on Monday afternoon for a little get together, some scrapping and some munchies. I have really missed getting together with everyone. Nice to see my pal Jane Miller back on the island for a short visit...definitely some catching up to do.
Hope you enjoy your long weekend...a tease for summer vacation, for sure!
