It was warm out, day and night, and it was nearly the final frost date for this area. I checked the weather, and they expected the next two weeks to be balmy and nice. So I planted my tomatoes and basil outside. They didn't even stay out there three days. My mom called to warn … Continue reading I Swear I Checked the Weather
We woke up this morning to this: There's a sort of hush when snow is coming down and deep like this. It's lovely, but as the day goes on you hear snow blowers starting, people shoveling, the snow plow. My husband does most of the shoveling, though I try to help.

And then we drunkenly staggered around shoveling snow. It turned out surprisingly well considering my lack of interest in this … Continue reading It Snowed~!
Well, I didn't take any pictures, but it snowed last Wednesday. April 18th. The busy season has started for my husband and dad, and they have NEVER attended their meetings with snow on the ground. Kind of crazy, right? We went to Madison for an appointment, and it was cloudy and dim on the way … Continue reading Unseasonably Late Snow
