Clean the porch. Fix window screens. Take long walks and watch the sunset. Smell the lilacs. Harvest fresh chives to top baked potatoes. Pick lily-leaf beetles off lilies many times a day. Visit several garden centers. Grill hot dogs and hamburgers and make potato salad. Make a rhubarb pie for Memorial Day. Feel the warmth of the sun. Buy geraniums. Have an iced-coffee with cookies in the late afternoon. Sleep with the windows open. Plant containers. Visit the local ice cream stand for the first time of the season.
