Surviving Minnesota!

[I Love Layers]

Beautiful day today, hopefully we don't end up with 6-10 inches in a few days though

A rude awakening this morning. Many inches of wet heavy snow over night. Much tree damage and some of the ornamental trees will not be salvageable. Winter is not over by a long shot. Where have all those global climate change geniuses gone ?

I lost the mailbox to the snowplow...the garden fence to the heavy snow. The wind and snow combined to take my sap boiling tent down. My orchard fence is toast.

and I am still missing a couple turkey hens.

I am really hoping my order for palm trees is not a tad premature for the impending global warming.

We woke today to 2-3 inches of snow....

Hopefully it will be gone by tomorrow.

Ours is maybe 3/4 gone. Mind, that still leaves quite a lot--just scattered around in drifts eager to pour in overtop of your boots, just to hear you say naughty words... and snigger at you.

No new snow here just the piles from plowing. Nice day but a little windy.

I planted my garden today.

I even planted radishes.


The wind knocked a couple sap buckets over, but I saw the trees were running pretty good today.

What kind of tomatoes did you plant? I can’t read the packs. Most of mine are Roma type, Amish paste and others. I love them for canning! I’ve started toms, peppers and tomatillos.

I started Roma, a sauce variety, beef steak, and some grape tomatoes,

I started a mix of bell peppers all colors, colored banana peppers and a mix of hot peppers. I will get whatever colors I happened to plant, I am not as good as Jerry I can’t tell the seeds apart.

I have a dozen cabbage and 3 egg plants.

My peppers are also a mix of bells and hot.
eggplant?

I have no idea why I planted eggplant, I can’t stand it.
