Wow, I haven't posted in a while. We've planted some plants around the pool. The windmill palm is just about 14 inches tall right now:
We've also planted some Encore Azaleas, which will bloom twice in a season, hence the name encore. Today I planted some ornamental grasses. Blue Festuca Glauca
And some Zebra grass
Bought some banana plants too, but those are in pots for this first month, then will go into the ground
Having moved south from NH in June 2008, this blog lists things I've encountered, struggles my family has faced, joys, surprises and all things new now that we are in NC.

He has risen indeed!
We put on a short drama Easter Sunday, entitled "Three Witnesses".
I know the camera can add 10 lbs, but go figure our church would find one that adds 30! Today was 90 degrees in Durham NC. Pool temp is 59 degrees, the water is greenish and the pollen is on the surface, so it will take 48 hours before it clears up. Who knows how long it takes before it warms up! Gee going in now would be like going to Hampton in June ... naw, that's an exaggeration, it gets to 68 there in the summer doesn't it?
For now, I'll skim and vacuum the pool in anticipation of the day we can actually go in.
