ce of the year to get out and really enjoy the sunshine! This year, when you are planning your Memorial Day weekend activities, take a minute to share the history of Memorial Day with your family.
Memorial Day was first enacted after the Civil War to honor member of the Union who were killed in action. Over the years it has grown to encompass all United States military personnel who have given the ultimate sacrifice in service to their country.
It is often said that we are the land of the free because we are the home of the brave. Remember the true meaning of Memorial Day this year. Take this opportunity to thank a service member, and remember and give thanks to those who have served in the past. We extend our gratitude to the brave men and women who defend our country, past, present, and future, as well as their families!

It may feel like it is still winter out there, but it will be time to start planting before you know it! Our Executive Housekeeper has an awesome green thumb and a very enviable garden each summer. Here are a few of her growing tips to get you off to a good start this growing season.
Did you know some plants grow better when they’re planted near each other? Combinations worth trying out this year are carrots with peas, lettuce, or tomatoes, and try putting your cucumbers near your peas, beans, and radishes. Beans are easy as they do well near just about any vegetable in your garden - except for onions! Plant basil near your tomatoes to give them more flavor. (And they taste great together too!)
Planting bulbs this year? Buy bulbs that are plump and firm. The bigger they are the bigger they’ll bloom! Be sure to plant them pointed side up in an area that receives at least 6 hours of sunlight each day. Once your done planting, spread about an inch or two of mulch over the top of your garden. This will prevent the weeds from growing. (Who wants those pesky weeds in the garden away?!) Don’t have space for a garden? Bulbs grow just as well in pots!
Good luck from the Wingate Missoula — the best of Missoula hotels!
