Well the good thing is, they are frequently wrong. I've noticed tho'
that they seem to be wrong most when predicting good weather...:/

Is that the cute little fence peeking out? Dang, and bemoaned having to feed goats, horses, and chickens when we got 6" that lasted for a 2 weeks and iced over. I'm sending good weather vibes to you ~~~~~~!!!~~~~~~

Yup, that is the fence.

Hey! Your garden looks exactly like mine!! Dh used the snow blower to clear a space for the poor chickens!! Keep the faith- spring will be here before we know it!

I finally got all the gardens cleaned out, and it SNOWED. Again.

Shoot!!! The same thing happened to me last week. One nice day- and then the gardens covered again! It was kind of cool when the snow melted, everything was neat and tidy! Almost, it is almost here!

Hi All,
Just a quick update before the rains start again......
The garden tour has started a blog http://sptkitlibrarytour2011.blogspot.com/
Which I hope to contribute to when I figure out how to add to it.
I am still waiting for the ground to dry out long enough to plant. I have one garden planted but nothing is coming up. I wonder if the seeds have rotted. The weather is miserable. I saw a bright orb in the sky today thru the fog but I could be mistaken...
The forecast doesn't show sun till next Tuesday. This is really getting old. I hope it isn't like this all summer.

Good luck, many of us are fighting the weather and waiting for seeds to sprout, You are definatly not alone there!

It is awful. I am a gardener by trade right now and weeding and mulch is even hard, I don't want to touch any plants when they are wet but I have to work between rain drops or gardens don't get done and I don't get paid. If it is not raining the fog and onshore breeze just about chills me to the bone.

There are only 10 more days of May and I am still in long johns and wool socks. The leaves are not out and half of the plants are not where they should be. I don't know what is going on with the weather but I am SICK OF IT!!!!!

All the seedlings rotted so the other day DH and I were at the greenhouse for one of our clients and he went nuts with the veggie starts. Most of the gardens are planted, 2 more to go. I wish it would stop raining.
