There were not a lot of blossoms on the small peach tree , but

cherry) haven't sustained any damage , most of them have started to
bud . Mother Nature is so fickle ...
We had a light frost this morning on the vehicles, didn't seem to
affect the fruit trees nor the gardens. Another hour or two and I
will check them again. Seems to be warming fast though. Don't think
it got below 40F at ground level. We're having weird weather this
spring, one day it's beautiful, almost hot, next day it's a light
frost or rain. Who's messing with the weather, gotta be Ma Nature?

Gotta be ! Anyway , it appears the blossoms sustained no damage , much to
my surprise . I'd have to go out to the shop and check for the exact
overnight low , but it was definitely in the mid 20's .
