Waiting for gardening to finish

Patrick and JJ wait behind the gate for gardening activity to cease in the Rose Garden. The barrier provides a safe haven for rabbits and other creatures but they can be threatened by large dogs barking at them from the living room windows - roughly where I was standing when I took the pictures.

 

 

 

 

 

 

In the garden again

It was quite a cool spring in 2011 and the garden didn't really start feeling wam well into April - the grass hasn't come back yet n this picture but at least JJ and Patrick could walk around and come back inside without wet muddy feet.

Patrick keeps a lookout - JJ relaxes

Patrick can very often be found watching the goings-on around the house. JJ couldn't stand on the chairs in the same way and was much more relaxed
