Tulalip Tribes elect Gobin as chairwoman By Christopher Andersson christopher@northcountyoutlook.com Teri Gobin will serve as the Tulalip Tribes next chairwoman and hopes to continue the Tribes’ work on the environment, housing, economy and protecting sovereignty. The Tulalip Tribes held their elections this March and Gobin will take over the chair position after spending the last two years on the council. “I’ve been nominated [for chair] the last two years but I declined because I really respected Madam Chair [Marie Zackuse] and I wanted to learn from her,” said Gobin. When she found out that Zackuse was not re-elected, along with Bonnie Juneau, Gobin said she decided to accept the nomination this time. Misty Napeahi and Glen Gobin were also elected as part of the Tribes' new leadership. “It’s sad to see the two ladies get off the board,” said Gobin, “but we look forward to working with the See GOBIN on page 9
Arlington Kiwanis members planted a new tree in front of City Hall to remember long-time Kiwanis and community member George Boulton on March 30. Boulton passed away in March 2018. "George was a fixture in this community," said Bob Nelson, current president of the Arlington Kiwanis. "He and I had many talks about what it meant to be a volunteer here and he said he had many favorite things, first, his family; second, his church; third, the Kiwanis; fourth, Dollars for Scholars; and finally, everything else about the city of Arlington," he said The local Kiwanis Club
wanted to put something together to honor Boulton. "Once they put the memorial in we wanted to honor George with a tree in this area, and working with Sarah Lopez [Arlington's community revitalization project manager] we found a good spot for it here," said Nelson. The Marley's Pink Japanese snowbell tree was put in at the City Hall plaza near Boulton's memorial that was put in by the Arlington Arts Council. The tree blooms with pink flowers. "It blooms around the May period, around George's birthday, so we wanted to honor him in that way," said Nelson. "We looked specifically See KIWANIS on page 3

The Marysville Fire District held an open house on March 26 to help inform residents about the upcoming vote in April to form a Regional Fire Authority. Community members came down to the Shoultes station to meet firefighters and learn about the Regional Fire Authority (RFA) measure that residents of Marysville and Fire District 12 will vote on in the April 23 election. Local officials decided to put the RFA measure on the ballot after years of budget deficits for the Marysville Fire District. As the population grew in the fire district, calls also increased and strained the budget for fire and emergency services in the area.
“We’ve undergone a lot of change since we began as a joint operating district in 1992,” said Martin McFalls, Fire Chief for the district. The number and types of calls have changed as well. “Right now our crews are responding to the opioid epidemic, homelessness issues, and mental healthcare,” said McFalls. “We have a variety of traumatic social issues that we respond to." Because of those challenges the district has been operating by pulling money from its reserve fund for a number of years. “We need to move to a different financial model, and if we don’t we truly are facing service cuts as soon as next year,” said McFalls.

Marysville Fire District Chief Martin McFalls talks at a March 26 open house about the upcoming measure for a Regional Fire Authority.
RFAs are models that the state allows to combine districts into an independent entity that is allowed to collect some property tax dollars. “It’s a special-purpose district. I relate it to a water district or a library district,” said McFalls. Those funding options would open up more potential for consistent, stable revenue for the fire and emergency services in the area. “Today, fire and EMS is funded through the city of Marysville’s general fund and the property tax levy

for the citizens in the district,” said McFalls. Under an RFA model all the money would go directly to the RFA instead of going through the city and Fire District 12 first. The proposed April 23 measure would set a property tax of $1.45 per $1,000 of assessed property value for all members of the RFA. That would mean about $11 per month of residents of Fire District 12, which includes some areas of Tulalip and unincorporated Snohomish County around Marysville. The Marysville City Council has stated their intent to reduce the city’s property tax rate to offset most of the increase in property tax for city residents, according to McFalls. If they do as planned Marysville residents would pay around $20 more per month. If the RFA is approved there are no plans to change the personnel from the current Marysville Fire District and the service area would also not change. McFalls does think that there will be some upgrades for the district though. “We think we’ll get immediately service improvements in terms of response times,” he said. There are approximately a dozen RFAs across the state, the most recent of which is in south Snohomish County. “RFAs are always created by a vote of the people, from the people served,” said McFalls. More information about the potential Marysville RFA is available at marysvillewa.gov/rfa.

Marshall students learn the art of drama By Christopher Andersson christopher@northcountyoutlook.com
Marysville’s Marshall Elementary School's afterschool drama program capped off their classes with a performance for the students' parents on March 29. The local Red Curtain Foundation for the Arts sponsored the program for a second year, bringing in a drama teacher to help fourth- and fifth-graders at the school. “It came about last year because the PTA was interested in doing an afterschool drama club,” said Sherry Penoyer, youth theater director for the foundation. “I’ve taught since the 1980s and they got me to come out of teaching retirement,” she said. The program allows kids to play some theater games that teach them speaking skills and confidence. In addition they rehearse and perform some small scenes. This year the students performed some scenes from the fantasy “The Locket” which the foundation is putting on this summer. “We decided to take some cuttings from the show we’re putting on any-

for trees that bloomed during that time," he said. Boulton was the owner of Flowers by George on Olympic Avenue and an active volunteer for Arlington's service clubs. "He was a founding member of Kiwanis and always supportive of anything we did," said Nelson. "He almost served in every board position," he said. Other Kiwanis members also came out to the planting to help remember Boulton. "I love George. He was my mentor and he was great," said Terry Marsh, a Kiwanis member, who added he enjoyed the event.
way,” said Penoyer. Kids performed as the meadowlarks, a frog queen and “frogettes” as part of the whimsical story. Students said they enjoyed the program. “I like the friends I made here and how we act like a family,” said student Talia Gibbs. “I think it was really fun,” said student Acacia Legaspi, who returned to the program this year after participating last year. “Every year you get to put on a presentation and audition for the parts." The program helps kids gain confidence. “I think this is really nice because it helps you get out of your comfort zone,” said Gibbs. “One parent told me that his son has come out of his shell since taking classes at Red Curtain and getting involved in this program,” said Penoyer, who added she enjoys seeing students gain more and more confidence as the weeks go by. “They’re never too sure the first couple of weeks,” she said. Games like “Silly Walks” help students learn how to be comfortable with acting. “They’re willing to go outside of their comfort zone and just look goofy,” said Penoyer. “My favorite game was Silly Walks, because you can walk around and make people do weird stuff,” said Legaspi. She also said she learned how to be still in a game where Penoyer and others tried to make the students laugh. “They would walk around and try to make you laugh and if you lasted until the end you won the game,” said Legaspi. The program lasts eight weeks and Penoyer said it "It's good to get people together with a little bit of sweat and little bit of love," said Marsh. Denny Byrnes was a longtime member of the Kiwanis who is retired from the club now, but remembers Boulton and how much he gave to the city of Arlington. "Watching how hard he worked was very inspirational. The community, as Bob said, was so much a part of his life and he was really the backbone of Kiwanis," said Byrnes. He added that the current Kiwanis members are carrying on Boulton's legacy of working with the community. "That's what makes this little town a great place to live," said Byrnes.
teaches students a variety of skills. “The arts are something that informs more than just the arts,” she said. “It helps them with public speaking, knowing more about how their body reacts to things around, and developing teamwork is a big part,” said Beckye Randall, operations director with the foundation. The foundation plans to bring the program to Sunnyside Elementary this year as well. They also plan to add a teen program this summer. “So there are opportunities for teens and kids to get involved and get a little more in-depth,” said Randall. More information about the foundation is available at their website at redcurtainfoundation.org.

schools, with a team score of 171. The Tomahawks placed fifth while narrowly losing to Arlington by one stroke, finishing with a score of 172. Unfortunately, the Chargers came in last as they shot a 211 as a team. “The team is working hard every day, they don’t get too down on themselves and they are just trying to get better. Everyone is at different points in their development so you need to coach everyone a little differently depending on where they are at. Overall, we just need to get better on the green because we are definitely losing strokes there,” said Marysville Getchell Head Coach Ryan Gilbertson. Marysville Getchell was led by their number one golfer sophomore Emryk Flitz and number two golfer junior Nathan Bickle. Flitz shot a 46, 11 over par, and placed 26th out of the 39 participating golfers. Bickle shot 18 over par as he finished with 53 and placed 34th. “We have really positive kids on the team and they make sure everyone
on the team is having fun playing the game. We have a lot of young guys on the team this year and they are getting better and better. I think the future looks good as we keep improving and moving forward,” said Marysville-Pilchuck Head Coach Dan Dewitte. Mar ysville-Pilchuck was led by their top three golfers Matt Allen, Connor Peterson and Jeff Reynolds. Allen, number two, shot an impressive 35 as he hit par and finished second overall on the day. Peterson, number one, was consistent throughout the day and shot a 44, nine over par, while tying for 20th place. Reynolds, number three, finished right ahead of Peterson at 18th place while shooting eight over par, 43. All six of Arlington’s golfers finished 10 over par, 45, or better on the day. They were led by their number one Nate Metcalf and number five Trent Nobach. Metcalf shot a 41, six over par, while placing 13th overall. Nobach was right behind him as he went seven over par, 42, and placed 14th.

Chargers tee off against M-P Pet By Andrew Hines sports@northcountyoutlook.com
The Marysville Getchell girls golf team hosted the Marysville-Pilchuck Tomahawks at Cedarcrest Golf Course on March 27. Both teams competed against each other on the back nine as the Tomahawks came away with the match victory as their top four golfers combined for a team score of 213. The Chargers were right behind them as they combined for 220. “We’ve been spending a lot of time on our short game and I have seen a significant improvement in their putts from last week to this week. I’m impressed with their focus and their desire to improve every aspect of their game,” said Marysville Getchell Head Coach Jaci Legore-Hodgins. Marysville Getchell was led by Nicole Phengmuang, Natalie Furness and Emily Reynolds. Phengmuang, number one golfer, shot 16 over par for a 51 while securing the second place finish out of all participants. Furness, number three, was just behind her as she was 18 over par with a 53 while finishing third. Reynolds, number five, shot for a 57
and placed fifth out of eight golfers that scored. “We have a couple of really strong seasoned golfers but our main goal right now is getting our younger girls to a place where they are shooting the scores they are capable of. They are improving every week and I think that by the end of the year we’ll be able to challenge for a District Title and compete as a team at State,” said Marysville-Pilchuck Head Coach Mike Reynolds. Marysville-Pilchuck was led by an incredible performance by Natalia Zieroth along with contributions from Liz Turrel and Gracie Wilkenson. Zieroth, number one, finished 10 strokes ahead of the next closest golfer as she shot six over par for a 41 while finishing first overall. Turrel, number two, finished in the top four as she shot for a 55, 20 over par. Wilkenson, number three, shot 23 over par for 58 and placed sixth. If you want to support the Chargers their next home match will be against the Stanwood Spartans on Wednesday, April 24, at 3 p.m. Or if you want to root for the Tomahawks their next home match is against the Snohomish Panthers on Tuesday, April 16, at 3 p.m.

Rahberger, mid, earned the first goal of the game while also dishing out two assists later in the first half. Wolfson scored two goals in the first half, in the first 20 minutes, while also earning two assists. With the number of goals scored by Lakewood there is a long list of contributors. Three other players scored goals for the Cougars including junior mid Hong Yi-Wu, junior defender Ethan Sidick and senior forward Diego Cueva. Lakewood’s junior forwards Joseph McLean and Enzo Sirigu also added to the stat line with an assist each.

Narcan training provided in Arlington By Christopher Andersson christopher@northcountyoutlook.com Arlington locals learned about how to reverse an opioid overdose with Narcan and how to administer the drug at a recent training put on by Snohomish County. Narcan has come into more frequent use since the opioid crisis began. Deaths related to opioid overdose have increased every year for the last decade in the United States In 2015 law enforcement officers were trained with Narcan to help reduce the number of deaths. “With them being the first responders most of the time, it was thought it would be important for them to know how to administer Narcan,” said Amy Hill, an opioid outreach specialist. Since then more than 200 lives have been saved by police officers with the drug. To try and spread the knowl-
edge and training further the county has begun hosting trainings, including one in Arlington on March 28. “The only thing that this medication will do is reverse an opioid overdose,” said Hill, as the drug works by blocking opioids from the receptors in the brain. “It temporarily takes away the high so that the person can breathe,” said Hill, “and that’s the only thing it does.” The medicine lasts between 20 to 90 minutes, but opioids are still in the brain so they can still overdose. “Even if you have Narcan and are going to use it on someone, you still want to call 911 first,” said Hill. Signs of an overdose include shallow breathing, pale and clammy skin, blue skin if they are lighter skinned, choking sounds and unresponsive to stimuli. If you suspect someone is over-
dosing Hill recommends asking them if they are okay. If they are unresponsive, she suggests doing a “sternum rub” (a maneuver that involves pushing knuckles into the center chest and that is painful but not damaging). “If they don’t respond, we’re going to call 911,” said Hill. After that, a person can open the Narcan passage, insert it into the nose and press the center plunger to release the dose. An overdose victim may vomit after receiving the Narcan, so Hill recommends rolling them away from you. If they awake they will be thrown into withdrawal and may be confused or combative. “They will often not know they overdosed, they will think they just fell asleep,” said Hill. If they do not awaken Hill recommends CPR chest compressions. Breathing into the mouth is unnecessary in this case, she said.
After three minutes if they are still unresponsive another application of the Narcan can be applied. Good Samaritan laws will protect a person who administers Narcan in good faith. “I’m here to assure you that you cannot be sued, you cannot get in trouble for administering Narcan to someone you think is having an overdose,” said Hill. Narcan is available in many pharmacies and you do not need a prescription for it, although it is not available over the counter. Most insurance companies will cover it, as well as Medicade, and it costs around $120 to $160 without insurance. The county plans to host more trainings around the county including an upcoming May 22 event at the Everett Public Library. Hill said that trainings are always posted to eventbrite.com.

Set up your space to help you be successful “I’m too busy," “I don’t have time to cook," “I’m always on the go," “I only have time to grab food quick while I am on the run." We have heard it all and said it all. Eating healthier is everyone’s goal, that’s no question. But making time for it is another story. In order to set healthier habits for long-term success we need to create a successful environment and donuts in the breakroom don’t help. Before you can set up your environment to be more successful, it’s a good idea to identify your triggers and when your eating tends to go off track for the day. Do you get to the end of the day and realize you have only had a few sips of water? Or realize you didn’t eat anything and it’s already 2 p.m.? Once you know where you tend to go off track it’s much easier to prioritize the list of items to set up to be more successful with your healthy eating habits. Clean your space Do you keep candy on your desk or high-sugar snack bars in your drawer? Let’s toss them. Is your workspace cluttered and you don’t even have much space for your water bottle? Take a few minutes each week to tidy up, if there is a space for that water, put that water bottle there and drink up. If you find yourself stuck at your desk and missing a break to eat keep low-sugar protein bars or some nuts at your desk for a quick pick me up. See it to believe it Make your goals and reasons why visible. If you are getting healthier to enjoy the outdoors more put up an image of the mountains or beach. If you want to take the kids or grandkids on vacation set up a photo of that place. Find some motivational quotes images that inspire you

and pin them up in your workspace. If you are having a stressful day and want to run to the vending machine for a snack you know doesn’t help to achieve your wellness goals take a look at your inspiration board. Get your water & your bottle Water is key. We hear it all the time and it’s often overlooked. If you are finding it hard to get your water in daily, set yourself up for success by having it readily available everywhere you go. One thing I do to always have my water is to keep a case of it in my trunk. Whenever I am driving from point A to point B I grab a liter and
get it down. The same rings true for your workspace, if it’s there, you’ll drink it. Get a large bottle and fill it each morning when you get to work. Bring it with you when you run for a coffee refill or bathroom break. Make it easy Want to go on a walk at lunch but don’t feel like you are dressed for it? Keep some tennis shoes or flats in your bag or desk, pop them on and get moving. Want to stand a little more? Make a “standing” appointment with a coworker to replace a sit down meeting each week. A few other fun ways to be healthier at work and set yourself up for success are to swap your chair with a yoga ball, invest in a standing desk, or try some resistance bands to put around your legs or ankles while sitting at your desk to keep moving. If it’s there and easy for you, odds are you will use it! If you find yourself struggling to remember to implement some of these new tools, set yourself an alarm on your phone or computer to buzz you ev-
ery few hours. Simple steps can go a long way in making permanent habits for your health and wellness goals. Try implementing just one tip this week to
create a more successful environment. Emily Countryman is a board-certified health coach and owner of Ideal Well-

Our Favorite Quotes
Working to support the environment South of the Marysville city limits lies one of our community’s natural assets, the Qwuloolt Estuary. (Qwuloolt means “marsh” in Lushootseed, a language spoken by Puget Sound Salish tribes including Tulalip.) It’s the place where the Snohomish River meets the Puget Sound. This transition zone is a special ecosystem for plant life and many species of fish, birds and other animals. Historically, the area was tidal marsh and forest shrub habitat interlaced by tidal channels, mudflats and streams. For more than 100 years, however, a man-made levee and ditches there created grazing and crop land but also disconnected upstream spawning areas from marine waters. That changed In August 2015 when a yearslong project led by the Tulalip Tribes in partnership with several federal, state and local agencies breached the levee to return the area to its natural ecosystem. Less than four years later, today the area is again home to native salmon, wildlife and plant communities. You can get an up-close view on foot or by bike from the Ebey Waterfront Trail. As we celebrate Earth Day and get outside more often starting in April, here are events and information about our community’s commitment and connection to our natural surroundings. City of Marysville On Saturday, April 27, you can support your community and the environment at Earth Day in Marysville from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. at Jennings Park. You can plant trees to help restore Allen Creek; learn about watersheds, the salmon life cycle and earth-friendly
actions you can take; and decorate a free reusable tote bag. All ages welcome, rain or shine. Wear sturdy boots and work clothes. Event co-sponsors are the City of Marysville and Adopt A Stream Foundation in partnership with the Tulalip Tribes, Marysville School District, Snohomish Conservation District, City of Arlington and the state Department of Ecology. That same day, City of Marysville residents can do spring cleaning and bring items for free disposal, recycling or donation to Clean Sweep from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. at Marysville Public Works, 80 Columbia Ave. Find details including which items are being accepted and tips for a smooth drop-off at www.marysvillewa.gov/900/Clean-Sweep. Tulalip Tribes A recent collaboration between the Tulalip Tribes Natural Resources Department’s Timber, Fish and Wildlife Program along with their Restoration Ecologist planted over 2,000 conifer trees (Douglas fir, spruce and shore pine) throughout approximately 4 acres of the Estuary. The hope is to displace non-native invasive plant species with native conifer tree species by shading them out over time. The hope is to expand the planting effort next winter and call for a wide range of volunteers to help plant native trees in areas adjacent to the Qwuloolt Estuary. For information on upcoming Qwuloolt Restoration projects, visit https://nr.tulaliptribes. com/Topics/Restoration/QwulooltRestoration Marysville School District Marysville School District teaches our students about the role they play as stewards of the environment span-
ning from elementary to high school. Beginning in fifthgrade all classes get to work in partnership with the team of environmental educators at Sound Salmon Solutions. During fifth-grade our students study the role they take in protecting water quality and prevention of contaminants into our water run-off and drains. The educators at Sound Salmon Solutions (SSS) and the Marysville School District offer field trips to the Jones Creek for hands-on Outdoor Learning. Students become “Stream Detectives" during a two-hour field experience where they measure water quality, identify stream macro-invertebrates, and use their results to determine the health of Jones Creek. As our students move from elementary to middle and high school they continue to learn about how they can protect our local waterways, through experiential learning at Kayak Point and during Environmental Science classes and clubs. This spring Marysville School District will partner with the City Of Marysville to offer our community Earth Day event. This year the focus of the event will be restoration of the wetlands in Jennings Park with a goal to plant over 1,500 local species. Students will share their learning with community members about our local environment and we will continue to work together to protect our water systems and environment.

Stilly Senior Center holds annual Health Fair By Christopher Andersson christopher@northcountyoutlook.com Local seniors got to connect with resources and programs at the Stillaguamish Senior Center’s annual Health Fair on March 27 Many organizations come to the fair to help inform seniors and their family members about opportunities and programs that can help with a variety of issues. “We like to have a resource fair at least once a year because we don’t have all the information housed
right here that our clients and the people who come here for recreation need,” said Marilyn Enright, outreach and wellness coordinator with the Stillaguamish Senior Center. Different nonprofit organizations and healthcare agencies come to the center to help connect with people. “We have a wide variety of health practitioners here, whether that be healthcare, exercise, personal or financial matters. Just a whole lot of different topics covered,” said Enright.

new members and moving ahead in a positive way.” Before serving on the council Gobin worked for the Tribes for 17 years. She was the Tribal Employment Rights Office director for many years. “I dealt with all of the contracting as well as vocational training for our Tribal members and employment,” she said. Gobin is also the daughter of longtime Tulalip leader Stan Jones, who spent 44 years on the Tulalip Tribal Board. Jones was Tribal chairman for 26 of those years. Now that Gobin is stepping into the same role, she hopes to continue the work the Tulalip Tribes have been doing. “We’re always protecting our sovereignty,” she said. That includes work such as Tulalip's' tax lawsuit, which they lost their but are now planning an appeal for that, said Gobin. Another recent lawsuit that required the state to fix culverts that had not been maintained and were block-

Seniors get to learn about programs they may not have realized were available as well. “It brings a lot of information to them that they might have not even sought out or known to go looking for,” said Enright. Local Sharron Nelson, who knows a few people in her family with Alzheimer’s, said that the event was helpful. “It’s wonderful. I hadn’t been to one of these before but it seems like they have a very good turnout of vendors,” she said.
ing salmon spawning routes went better for the Tribes. Protecting the environment is a big priority for the Tribes, said Gobin. “Restoration of stream habitat is extremely import for us,” she said. Sometimes that means land acquisition simply to restore habitat, such as the Qwuloolt project. “All along the streams people are offering us to buyback the land,” said Gobin. “We will never be able to use it, but we can clean it up and get the salmon to spawn up there,” she said. As housing prices continue to rise and become more burdensome, Gobin said Tulalip will work toward more affordable housing. “There’s just such a housing need and it’s so bad, even throughout the county,” she said. “People that want to live here or return here have very limited housing opportunities.” Gobin hopes to get apartment housing built for the Tribes and also remove barriers to home ownership as well. “We’re starting them with financial training to help families secure home loans,” she said.
Health fairs give organizations a chance to connect with people in the community as well, said Hazel Borden, Alzheimer’s Association Community Outreach Coordinator. “Sometimes people don’t know where to turn to for programs and services, so these health fairs really put us front and center without people having to dig through the internet,” she said. The Stillaguamish Senior Center’s fair is also convenient for people, said Enright.
Another cost burden for Tulalip members is healthcare. “Eventually we want to get to universal healthcare, to make sure we’re all getting the good healthcare that we need,” said Gobin. “Through the [Point Elliott] treaty we were guaranteed healthcare, but that has always been lax,” she said. Improving mental and behavioral health is also important for the overall healthcare picture as well, said Gobin. The Tribes have spent $2 million sponsoring two studies at Stanford researching cannabis oils and their potential to treat various health problems. Continuing economic development is also a goal for the Tribes, said Gobin. The Quil Ceda Casino was delayed because of problems with the contractor, however it is now back on track, said Gobin. To help Tulalip youth the TERO vocational program will work with teens this summer. “This is the first year that we will have a youth component to this,” said Gobin, “and they’re getting construction training during the summer.”
“When we invite a bunch of vendors to come, it becomes a one-stop shop and they will sometimes make a connection with a vendor they had no idea about that could benefit them or their family,” she said. “It happens right in their neighborhood at a time that they will be more available. It’s brought close to them so they don’t have
to travel,” she said. Enright wanted to thank all of the vendors who help with the event. “We’re very appreciative of our vendors for coming and bringing the information and little gift items to our fair to make it fun,” she said.

A few random thoughts as we head into April As I come to disasters and sucthe end of March, cesses — life goes I often find myself on. reviewing what This is the first has happened in time in my garden this first quarter that my Cornelian of the season. I’m Cherry is bloomBy Steve Smith not sure yet if it ing concurrently will have some bearing on with my neighbor’s flowering the rest of the year or if it is plum. It seems weird to see just a cleansing process for this combination and I supme as I move into the heart pose it could even feel a bit of the gardening calendar. It unsettling. Is this the result is important to process what of climate change or just a has occurred in these first screw up on Mother Nature’s three months because there part? Clearly, the weather are actions we need to take is a factor as it continues to as a result of what Mother become more erratic all over Nature has thrown at us. But the world with minus 65 it is also important to keep degree winters in the Midthings in perspective. I have west to record flooding in come to learn that despite all the South to even a tornado the anomalies we go through in our state. Thankfully, we every year — the weather are somewhat buffered from extremes, the endless rainy these extremes, but we will weekends, and the planting continue to see instability in
our weather as we move forward. It’s a reminder not to get too complacent. Speaking of late bloomers (like the aforementioned Cornelian Cherry), my winter daphne is still perfuming my garden with its incredible and unmatched (in my opinion) fragrance. This would never be happening if it weren’t for the protracted cold spell we had back in February and early March. As a side note, daphnes are hard to get established and even I have killed my fair share of them over the years. Be sure to give them good drainage and some afternoon shade, and expect to fail a few times before you succeed. I think the jury is finally in on my wife’s mophead hydrangeas. The End-
less Summer and Merritt’s Beauty seem to be leafing out uniformly, but the Ayesha is toast. This is truly sad as Ayesha has very special flowers that are cupped much like a French lilac and there will be none this year because it only blooms on last year’s wood. If I had thrown a frost blanket over it during those 10 days of subfreezing weather (which I did the previous winter) I might be looking at a different scenario (hindsight is always 20/20). But alas, all is not lost for this shrub. Ayesha is way too big for where it is planted and this will be my year to work some magic with my pruners. I can already envision what it is going to look like come the end of summer. It is often said that

While many of us find change unsettling, it is important to remember that it also brings new opportunities. It would appear, that weather wise, we are now caught up and therefore ready to move full speed ahead with our gardening chores. Go grab your
rake and hoe, sharpen the lawn mower blade, prepare the flower and veggie beds, and above all, don’t let the soon to be April showers get you down. Remember, they bring May flowers.
