[IBC] Mostly a test

I don't do this often, but while everything else (Listserv test,
etc.) checks out, I've had no list messages for 24 hours. Need
to see if my ISP is fooling around before I query LSoft.

Had an inch of rain last night; almost the first we've had in
2003. Much needed. Trees are ALL leafing out, and we're bound
to get a few more freezes before the March 14 "last freeze" date.
Have to start repotting next week (or sooner).

I'm working on another "seasonal care" essay -- this one on
spring chores. Those of you who have particular spring jobs
(aside from run-of-the-mill repotting) might drop me a line.

Well, got my own message in less than 4 seconds. Things seem to
be working _really_ well. You guys must all be sulking. ;-)

Yes the rain was much needed. This is my favorite time
of the year when everything begins to bud out. My Acer
is shooting out buds everywhere which is a relief
since I was a bit worried about it for a while. And my
Boug is getting ready to flower it looks like.

As for the last freeze in March, well I am guessing we
will have a least one hard cold snap in April as usual
too.

I'm with Mark! I feel so sorry for you guys in FL...NOT. We
got snow last
night and it's supposed to get down to 10 or so degreees
tonight. I think
our "last freeze" date is sometime in mid-May ;-)

Yeah. Carl even sent pictures! NOT for me.

I actually repotted my two small pear trees this morning. They
had BURST into leaf overnight, and I had to get them into their
new homes quickly. I'll probably be lugging them inside a couple
of times between now and mid-March (April "freezes" aren't cold
or long enough to worry about).
