May is the time of year when Spring really gets into full gear. The time to plant new flowers and enjoy the ones that are blooming now. I’m looking forward to the time to transplant my tomato plants. I countdown each day until Memorail Day. I love the 3 day weekend and the unoffical start of summer. I’m looking forward to a few of the weird ‘holidays’ that occur this month. Next week’s Cino De Mayo will be fun since it is a ‘good’ reason to drink margaritas. ha!
