55/72 total rain ½ inch
Finished making labels for prairie seeds Kensel gave me. Have planted 24 kinds now along lower driveway. Planted snow ball bush down by waterway – pulled garlic mustard, planted 2 lbs of Scott’s shade grass seed – filling in places where flood washed out grass. Too wet to mow.
Magnolias still gorgeous
Spring beauties a white carpet. Dutchmans Breeches spreading – spring cress in clumps – bloodroot about gone.

Mary brought June & George Ulle out for bfst – Belgian Waffles with sausage. Took walk thru woods on this side – too coll for spring beauties to be open – and windy. Then across river (via road) to show them boundaries. George helped me dig about 10 small pawpaws & then plant them across the road. Told them to come back in Sept in 5 years for the first crop.
Howard’s income tax report arrive about 1:30 – no comment – nbithing. Just the way I sent it with questions on Feb 19! – Finished copies & to BancOhio in Caledonia to ask what had to be included (their bank statement no) He was incensed at treatment I’d received.
