I don't mind the cold temperatures all the way down to about 15° or so. Same here, I’ve got a Snowmobile so I’m for snow that much more. But like I said, after the 60 degree day and it overall getting warmer I’m over having any snow. I’d rather be outside doing something than in my house, cold at this point.

I'm ready to have the shop doors open at work. It gets stuffy in there over the winter. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
8ntruck 7,317 #28 Posted Wednesday at 01:11 AM While walking the dog today, I noticed that the bush honeysuckle plants are starting to leaf out. Invasive plant. It leafs out first, and drops leaves last, shading out the underbrush that should be there. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Handy Don 13,226 #29 Posted Wednesday at 06:41 PM (edited) Yesterday was lawn prep day. Dethatched using the Snapper RER (it dethatches, vacuums, and shreds in one pass!), aerated (854 pulls it nicely), and spread pre-emergent crabgrass preventer/grass fertilizer. Today bundled up the 4-foot heavy cuttings from the privet thinning for DPW pickup next week (the small stuff went through the chipper/shredder last week) and hit all the onion grass with weed-b-gone.

Ed Kennell 40,180 #41 Posted Saturday at 03:32 PM 75F and a great day for the youth early trout opener. We have a good population of natives in addition to the stocked trout. More signs of spring. Daffy Dills and Petunias blooming and the plum and pear trees are budding. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

No petunias here, just daffodils & forsythia. Hay fever is in full swing, though! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It was after 9 before I even saw someone get a bite. I'd say 9:15 before we got our first one on the line. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
8ntruck 7,317 #45 Posted 20 hours ago The dogwood tree in our side yard is in bloom. Funny thing about this tree. We moved into this house in 2003. That dogwood was planted under 2 oak trees and a locust tree. It did not bloom for several years. One year we were talking about cutting the dogwood down. That year it managed to produce 3 flowers. May e we scared it into blooming? 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
