The magnolia tree blossomed and dropped its petals last month, and my lawn is red and skwishy with fat camellia blossoms--the tree seems to drop several pounds worth every day. But the warm, sunny days are interrupted by cold, wet, gray ones--it's not summer yet, though GG has the hammock out in the front yard.
