Days of sunshine, hours of gardening- and delicious asparagus from the garden for dinner- on the deck!! Now that is a dream come true. Thank you mother nature!

What was it -- the 3rd or 4th day to reach 68? I don't know but it sure was nice :).

About the nicest thing is that we have more, and warmer weather in the forecast! Having broken the 70 barrier - what was it -- the 2nd or 3rd time? Doesn't matter -- we are headed towards 80! Sunshine, little wind!

I'm starting to have bok choy from under plastic regular, Lesa. More chives than you can scramble into a beaten egg -- you know how I am :p. The garden is still a long way from productive here but there is promise! I am glad you are finding the pleasant things of spring at your house, too!

Yay! I'm glad your spring finally pulled in Lesa! Dinner on the deck sounds glorious!

Ditto what Steve said.

I spent a great day edging a new bed I made last fall with small boulders, lots of sunshine on my back. Probably should have prepped the potato beds, but this was more fun. I halved my customer list and I'm loving the freedom to spend the extra days in my own garden.

I'll make the same bet too Smiles!

This past month I can tell she's been pacing the floor looking outside wanting spring to sproing.

I was about to launch a weather satellite with a huge mirror on it to aim some sunshine her way!

I think they planted the Beets and Peas in Greenland already.

Lesa that sounds amazing! Asparagus is great enough, but when it comes from your own ground I bet it is even better. Enjoy!
