    Yesterday was a busy day.  more boxes and totes were emptied in the house.  After a week upstairs there was lots for the vacuum to do downstairs.  Thankfully Maegin did that.  I did some cleaning, trying to downsize more as I went.  Sally Jo has gotten most of her stuff.  She is enjoying setting up the trailer.  Kaden had several pickup loads stored in the garage.  He moved most of it yesterday.  Now we need to get the garage ready for the picnic Saturday. 

    The calibrachias were moved to a small outside greenhouse .  Now they have more room and cooler temperatures.  They need the room, they do well if it is cool, they also do fine when it is hot.  Unlike the pansies, they don't do well when it is hot.  They weren't getting too crowded but they will be much happier in the unheated vegetable greenhouse. Cases of pansy bowls came so in a day or so there will be pansy bowls for sale. Many petunias moved to the cold frames, being pruned as they went.

     The regional Coast of Maine rep came yesterday.  Jay very much enjoyed his visit.  Jay got lots of display ideas and a lot of growing knowledge to pass on to customers.   We still have some Coast of Maine backordered but we are well stocked.  Jay or Bekah are usually here.to help customers.  Starting next Tuesday they will be open Tuesday through Saturday.  For the month of May they are open six days a week and Sunday afternoons.

     May God bless you on this day, Sally
