Good luck.


the weather has been 40 degrees F or more above
normal (low 40s). the turnips and peas have sprouted.
onions i expect soon. forecast looks fine. another
week and i won't worry as much if the sprouts can
withstand a light frost or a bit of snow.

a little rain last night, good deal, i was going
to have to water again and i'd just gotten a few
yards of shredded bark and leaves spread out and
some dug in. that garden is starting to look nice
and is ready for planting.

hm, think i will take it easy today and do some
light weeding and frog around randomly.


Are you saying that when you bend over to weed you get offers to play
leapfrog?
