SPRING IS CLOSE NOW

What a difference we now see since my last post.

Every day last week the daily temperatures were from 52 degrees all the way up to 57 degrees and all of these huge snow banks have started melting like you poured hot water over them as whatever melted on any particular day turns into ice that night. Then the process starts all over again the next day.

Haven't been down to the farm so I don't have any clue as to what is going on down there. I'm sure the snow is melting just as fast as it is here in town. The strangest thing on Tuesday of this last week I believe it was I discovered in one of the flower beds on the west side of the house that is finally thawed out a beautiful little purple pansy just blooming it's little heart out.

My friend Dayna always starts all of her plants from seed so that they have a very good growth on them before she ever sets them out as our growing season is just too short here and she had tomatoes come up along with other types of vegetables as well.

Everyone is really looking forward to spring in our part of the country.
