Spring Clean Up...Finally

It has been a long wait for Spring to arrive...and I'm not quite sure if it is here actually. But it's spring break for the kids so I took the week off to get some stuff done and have some fun, too. Today was a 50 degree day so I decided to start the spring clean up of the flower beds. I leave some things up over the winter, like coneflowers, so birds can enjoy the seeds, and so a little bit of natural reseeding takes place for "volunteer" plants.
