First garden weekend
I love the first weekend when it truly feels like Summer. We spent most of it in the garden tidying, planting, reading, pottering about. For the middle months of the year the garden feels like an extra room to our house. Less television gets watched, more books get read, the music gets changed.
I still sit in the garden and remember the awful year when we didn't have a garden or even a terrace to sit on. And every evening that I sit out there and watch the sun go down I think about how lucky I feel to have an outdoor space back in my life. I don't think that feeling is ever going to go away.
