We are fortunate in the South to enjoy a long blooming season. Many of you are dodging the rain and gardening. Plant sales and events are popping up all over the region and now is the time to begin your spring clean up and planting. This barrel of daisies has brought me so much joy in our garden. Visit the locally owned nurseries in our area for unique selections of plants that thrive in the region.
Things to do in April 2025
On Saturday, April 12th plan to visit the USS ALABAMA Battleship Memorial Park to see history come to life. WWII reenactors will demonstrate what life aboard ship was like during wartime. They will share stories from original crewmen, conduct weapons briefings and so much more.
I had the pleasure of seeing this in person a few years ago and it was exciting. Did you know that the USS ALABAMA is the #1 tourist attraction in the state?
