In like a lamb, out like a lamb

March started off beautifully, then it snowed and froze, and today the last of that snow washed away with rain, and it was a nice, warm, grey afternoon to be outdoors.

this week

Mike has little plants sprouting under grow lights and in trays outside. He and I both put in a nice order at Baker Creek Seeds, and I got a lot of flowers that I am excited about, except there is now no room under the grow lights... guess some will have to wait to be planted outside after the last frost!

Mike planted some lettuce seedlings in the garden, has been spreading compost, and put netting over his raised bed of strawberries and onions, since the critters keep trying to eat his stuff. And here are his mushroom logs:

So there's a little update. The grass is lush and green now, and I even heard a lawn mower or two this week. Welcome, Spring!
