I yearn all winter to get "in the dirt" as soon as spring arrives and have thoroughly enjoyed planting flowers all spring. However, along with the rains came the weeds, so today will be devoted to getting rid of them. I'm afraid it will be a full-time job.

No better therapy than to work with the soil...with your hands.
