Spring color...

About a year ago, Madlene made fun of my garden as being rather pathetic. I had just planted a bunch of perrenials, which I had sprouted from seed, or planted bare root plants... but I had a vision of what they'd look like. As you can see, they are filling in quite nicely :-) Most of the color comes from the columbines. I am also quite excited to see some of the Boston Ivy seeds I collected in Croatia last year have sprouted. There are a lot of buildings in this country that could stand to be covered in that vine - they'll go from ugly to picturesque in no time at all! If anyone wants some, let me know.

Meanwhile, the internet and cell phones were not working well at all for me today. Could I dislike ArmenTel any more than I already do? Can they disappoint more than they already have? Will the government ever care about the welfare of the people?

I spent a lot of time this week on Rediscovering Armenia. Getting it printed is taking a lot longer than I'd hoped. Plus I am preparing for my sisters first visit to Armenia. She arrives this weekend and I'm giving her the royal tour. It's going to be great! I haven't had a chance to do an Armenia trip like this in so long... I just hope it's not too rainy, but either way it will be quite green...
