Mowing and Thunder

I wanted to get the mowing done today while it was nice.  It had been put off several times because of the weather and it was getting pretty tall, almost ready to go to seed.
The magnolia tree is in full bloom now.  The trees and plants in this area will be getting more sunlight now with the cascara tree being knocked down by the snow and Steve falling the fir tree.
The huckleberry bush by the deck looks really healthy this year.  It's kind of nice being able to walk out and eat them.
Our biggest azalea is almost in full bloom just a few more days of warm weather should do it.
The pansies we put out have made it through some hail and rain storms, they looked a little droopy for a while but have recovered nicely.
 This is the only picture I took today, Vera took all the rest.  Just after I finished mowing and we were sitting down for dinner the thunder started, followed shortly by a really heavy rainstorm.  Not long after dinner a new member of the club stopped by to get a servo.  He had one fail and wouldn't be able to fly this weekend without a new retract servo.  Luckily I found a new one I had stashed in a drawer, it is a style I don't plan on using again.  My new digital picture frame showed up today.  I added a couple of hundred new pictures to the SD card and got it hung up in the shop.  I also got the trailing edge sheeting glued on the right wing of the P-39.
