Have you driven north lately?  On the Peninsula, I mean.  The daffodils are out in all their glory!  And they are EVERYwhere.  Look for them on the back road beginning at the Beach Barons’ place and, on the front road about at the Peninsula Baptist Church and at Oman’s and the Ocean Park Elementary School and at Sheldon’s Field.  Heading east toward Nahcotta, the north side of Bay Avenue is glorious and Oysterville is daffy-daffy-daffy-down, all-around-all-around!

Near The Beaver Ditch on Oysterville Road

Tom Downer told me yesterday that we are looking at SIX TONS of bloomin’ bulbs?  Or did he say 60 tons?  Either way, it’s more than I can get my garden spade around.  Or my mind.

I love the plantings in clumps and clusters.  I wish we’d suggested that to Eugene-the-Landscaper when he did ours.  But I’m thinking that our rows will eventually clump up anyway, as the bulbs split and sprout.

In The Oysterville Churchyard

Big Red has apparently declared himself Inspector General.  I don’t know how he gets out of the yard (and he sure as shootin’ isn’t telling) but he was out daffodil moseying yesterday and then wouldn’t go back into the garden.  The hens stood on the other (read: right) side of the fence, but not until I walked through the gate and showed him how it was done would he return to his coop duties.

Big Red on Patrol

I know that Ferdinand truly loved sniffing the flowers but, really Big Red!
