April 15th 2008...My Forsythia, Bradford Flowering Pear tree, and my Lt. Purple Rhododendron PJM are in bloom. The lilacs have a lot of buds on them. Disapointed that my daffodills didn’t bloom at all this spring, just a lot of green leaves. I must of "trimmed" the leaves off too early last spring so the nutrients didn’t go back in to the bulbs so they would flower this spring :( ! Learn by the burn!

April 30th 2008...After 2 days of a good rain, my tulips are blooming as well as the blue Phlox under the Bradford Pear Tree, (still no blossoms on the daffodills). The lilac flowers are getting bigger every day. Great new growth on the climbing roses, and the perannuals are growing fantastic too. Mowed my lawn this past Sat. for 4 the 1st time.

As soon as we get the AARP Fat to Fit Community Challenge up and running (late summer is current schedule), maybe we could create a fitness team where gardening is a common interest. Like you, I hadn't thought about gardening as a "fitness exercise" until I interviewed some of the master gardeners here in Nevada County. They were all trim and fit so I started asking them about their lifestyle. Turns out that gardening does indeed help individuals achieve balance, flexibility, endurance and a host of other benefits, including peace of mind that comes from working outdoors and/or with soil. But I am also glad to see that you have added free weight training to your routine. I added that last to mine and am delighted with the benefits--stronger bones, greater strength and a more youthful shape. We'll be in touch. Carole

PS: Current information on the AARP Fat to Fit Community Challenge is found on my Web site at www.fromfat2fit.com if you want to learn more about what is coming.
