A STROLL, A RAMBLE, A TRUDGE..gardening in Vermont..an old gardener looking for new tricks while moving from the purely floral to jabbing at sustainability via vegetables and fruits.

I CAN'T TAKE ALL THIS SUN!!!!!
Just kidding - Bring it on. Managed to have a pretty productive day despite or because of the two feet of snow that has so compacted enabling me to amble right over it..technically I walked on water.
Little microclimates around the buildings are finally seeing the snow recede, lo & behold there are actually plants down there. Now, I'm not such an idiot to believe we've seen the last of snow falling but I'll go out on a limb and say Winter's back is officially broken, at least from my perspective.
Of course as I wandered about I've already begun thinking of next years wood supply. It never ends until you do. Though I did think of a cheering line from Bon Iver's song 'Stacks', "everything that happens is from now on". Yeah.

Happy spring Randi,
Looks like you have some wood to split. Like my father always says "wood will warm you twice". I have a stack just like that one waiting on me.
I was doing a little walking on water myself today, trying to find some chickweed for the shook's next to trees where the snow had started to recede...didn't have much luck with that task.
Thanks for putting a smile on my face,
Mike
