The much overused ‘Awesome’ actually applies in relation to these magnificent stones,
Thank you dear friend for the terrific pics.

Comment on Spring in Central Park by TheFitzyreport

Yes Rob, there are two official services organised by the Australian Consulate-General’s office. One is a dawn service on the 25th and the other is a ticketed event on the Sunday before or after ANZAC Day. The Sunday service at the Rockefeller Center is very popular and after a few years of first come first served, this year it was a lottery system to win admission. It is a beautiful service on the rooftop looking out to St Patrick’s Cathedral on 5th Avenue. My suggestion would be to get your name on the mailing list for the American Australian Association or the Consulate so you will receive an email in time to apply. Please see the following link for details…. https://www.americanaustralian.org/en/cev/1099/

Thanks Joan – yes, the garden is certainly a great place to be. It was such a change to come to NYC and adapt to gardening in pots, and to surviving through the frozen months. So I appreciate the Spring more than ever and will post some photographs to show off my azaleas…. and lilac… and fig! I grew a (small) watermelon a couple of summers ago and sent the picture to Gardening Australia. If I can keep the birds at bay, I may be able to do the same with my fig… Happy gardening!

And happy greetings to you too. Much appreciate your remembering mothers around the world….. some of us have been alone thinking about rewarding times over the years. Getting out into the garden is great therapy. Cheerio Joan
