:( We've been having flurries most of the day. It figures because Saturday I did plant some lettuce, radishes, and spinach in the garden. Thankfully nothing is staying on the ground. The furnace has been running most of the day. I think Mother Nature is back on track though. I hope all had...

Hi Jared, I agree with Swampducks its nice you dropped by, come on in and chat anytime. We reached a high of 46 today :weee And we did get a hard frost last night. My tulips are only showing their leaves. And are in full sun! I do have 4 daffadils that have bloomed though. Lots more to...

$900 would of been fine for me, but TWELVE THOUSAND was out of the question. $1200 would of been fine too. Can you believe my Iris leaves have turned brown from this cold weather? They have always been so hardy :( I know what you mean about hard to decide who to keep. I have a friend who...

Overrun is right....but boy what fun. I several different kinds. More barred rock then anything else. Two turkens, two feathered feets, one red sexlink (one of my favorites), several golden buffs a couple silver wyndottes, anyways what I did was ordered the standard sized brown layer mix from...

Rather cool here this afternoon...only 46. The 70's sure did spoil me a few weeks ago. My garden which DH made larger is plowed and ready to go. Come on frost, go away and don't come back.

SWAMPDUCKS do you have lettuce planted outside?

:) I'm back! DH rigged the dish up so we could have the internet while remodeling....Sun is out and only 42 right now. The nights sure have been cold! My tomatoe plants are doing good. They have the two leaves and starting to get 3 and 4 now. Lettuce in pot is getting stringy. It's just...

It didn't get any warmer then 48 here today. We're doing some remodeling and putting Hughsnet on hold for a bit. So the only time I'll be on is when I go up to Rogers City to the librairy. Maybe when I do get back on here the gardens will be planted and no frost again until late Sept. Have...

We ended up getting a down pour early this morning, just enough to wet things up a bit. Yep it looks like Mother Nature is getting back to the norm of things.

Swampducks you getting any rain down your way. We have a lot of lightening south of us. A bit of thunder but no rain so far tonight.

Looks like our low in the 30's comes next Wen. and Thurs. nights. Sure it'll change by then. It was so warm here today I actually took a nap. Haven't done that for awhile. Must be all this fresh hot air. Apple trees are budding out now too. I haven't seen any new growth on my rose bush yet...

Didn't get as much done today as I had planned. But thats just fine because I got to visit with my two year old grandson. He just loves my chicks. It was his first time seeing the new farm animals. He was scared of the cow and pigs. But just loves those chicks! I know who is going to be...
