This weekend is the long weekend that is known as beginning of the Canadian summer. We call it "May 2-4" weekend and Monday is a statutory holiday, Victoria Day. We celebrate it on the last Monday of May or sometimes on May 24th for Queen Victoria's birthday.
That being said, this weekend is also when people kick the cottage season.
For those of us that don't have cottages up north stay at home to garden because we don't stop expecting frost until the next Fall season.
So as we garden, it's also when we hold gatherings and have barbecues with of course a 2-4 of beer.
This year has been nastier than last in terms of having nice sunny days. For example, this past week has had enough rain to compare to the amount it rains on average in a month.
I shot a couple of photos of one of my favourite plants! Bleeding hearts!
Happy Gardening! Happy May 2-4!

Those bleeding hearts are gorgeous! I've never seen or heard of those before. I really want to get into gardening, but there is just no space around my townhouse thing that I live in!
