The temperature was perfect for working in the garden. The sun was warm, but not too hot, and there was a light breeze. I got to work trimming the Miss Kim lilac bush. It was nice to be outside in the fresh air and the smell of the lilac blossoms was intoxicating. I finished trimming the bush and stood back to admire my work. The bush looked so much better now and I was happy to have helped it thrive.
