May 24th is the Queen's birthday...
May. 24th, 2010 09:40 pmand if you don't give us a holiday, we'll all run away! Or at least that's how an old, old skipping rhyme goes.
The May long weekend is the traditional start of the Canadian gardening season, although I think it's starting a little late here. Some positively chilly weather has put a damper on being outdoors as well as a nasty wind - sometimes I think if I had known the wind was so bad out in this part of Calgary I would have moved somewhere else! If we're not losing the garbage cans, it's the deck chairs. I want a cast iron patio set - try to move that, Mr. North Wind!
( Time to get the mini roses outdoors... )
