yesterday was such a sweet and gorgeous day. rin and i had to go to north spokane for an appointment and on the way back, we went near riverpark square and the temp was 58°f. so great. the weather is finally starting to turn warmer and the days are growing longer. this saturday, we have to turn the clocks forward an hour. yeah, i have to lose an hour of sleep, but i am gaining an extra hour of sunshine. w00t.

after we got home yesterday, i started bringing out the cushions for our patio swing and b wanted to help me with it. after we got that taken care of, i started to knock down old yellowjacket nests. i know that i should have done that in the fall, but i was lazy. i could only get one (and it was a huge one) so i have to get a bigger ladder so get to the higher eaves. i also started shaping a maple tree to a cascade style bonsai. it is still young, but it is really pliable. . .
