Big day


Today was a big day. We transplanted all seedlings that have come up into larger containers (~50). I had to get another 4' fluorescent light fixture from the attic to provide enough light for all of the plants.

At the end of the day, we built another 4x4 frame and planted (32) more snow peas. It was a beautiful sunny day, though a bit cool. Yesterday, the hills just outside of town received 6" of snow, though we only seemed to receive about 1/2" and it was gone by the end of the day. The wind was blowing so fiercely that we spent the day in the kitchen doing food prep.

Today we noticed that the apple trees are starting to grow new leaves and that some daffodils and other flowers are blooming around town. In spite of this, the weatherman is calling for more snow over the next five days. I guess we will have to endure a little more Winter weather before Spring finally gets into full gear. I will post some pictures soon. Cheers.
