The annual Easter Lily planting started today.
You can see Mardi and Maureen in the background. They were inserting tags into the pots.
Eight houses away, the Lilies were put on the ground.
I was stationed at the corner where the above picture was taken. My job was to make sure that the trays entered the corner properly to avoid train wrecks.
Our friends Barry and Elaine Faughnan (some of the Dofasco folks will recognize those names) stopped in the garden centre (which is behind where the above picture was taken) to purchase a Christmas urn. I spent a couple of minutes talking to them and while my back was turned, you guessed it, a train wreck! Two dumped trays. My bad!
At one point in the morning the pot filling machine needed a repair. Three generations of Craigs worked on it. Sean, on his hands and knees, and two supervisors.
While the machine was down, Santa's helpers stopped for a picture with Rudolph and friend.
All in all, it was a good starting day. Two houses filled.
We're back at it tomorrow.
Stay well.
