April Showers Bring May Flowers in Big Canoe
By kve | April 20, 2008

Well, there were about 125 disappointed young soccer players this Saturday morning with the heavy rains on Friday night. However, ALL the plants in Big Canoe were waving their leaves with joy because not only did they avoid the predicted hard freeze, but they also got some rain to boot!.
Many of you already know that most of us do not have grass in our yards, and we try to rely on native gardening, which is far more beautiful to the trained eye. This is the time of year that the native azaleas start to bloom and they are truly a show stopper. Pink and orange blooms meshed with the dogwoods look like nature’s fireworks in the forest. The mountain laurels are another favorite with their happy pink and white flowers.
Along with the blooms come the birds, frogs, and butterfies. LIke nature’s orchestra the artistic blend begins when all creatures co-habitate colorfully under a sunny sky and end with a full moon seranato of lonely frogs, and happy crickets.
As hokey as this may sound I truly believe that this is the reward I get for opening my windows and allowing the outside to come in and fill the house with something other than pollen!!! Spring in Big Canoe is an experience that truly tickles your soul.
