Work in Progress

Just a few photos today.

One is of the new cement planters that hold up our stop signs. The signs were in old beat-up barrels for the longest time! TRAC wanted to have something to coordinate with the Buffalo Street center planter put in earlier by the Caddo Community Association. You can see it in the background. Now we just have to put plants in them as soon as the weather warms up a bit.

The other two are a “before” and “today” shot of the little flower bed next to the theater. The daffodils have already bloomed and faded. Now the tulips have started. For some reason the white ones have opened before the pink and yellow ones. They have their own timetable! All those green sprouts are larkspur and poppies.
