Wow! It’s not even that cold up here, yet! I have been covering the lettuces I have started in a planter on the porch at night, though.
The rest of the garden is just a ‘recovery mission’ at this point in time; I have to have it pretty much cleaned up and mulched in before the 23rd when Aunt Alice shows up for inspection.
You think I’m kidding? She is a formidable life long farmer/gardener! Aunts somehow feel OBLIGATED to kick your butt when they can, LOL! :)
It was 39° at 7 AM, but no freeze or frost despite forecast. Looks like flowers for another week!
Older family and older people in general. When the engineer came out to see about us getting a phone line here. I mentioned we only had the place for a matter of weeks and mentioned the work in progress driveway. I got through half the first sentence and as soon as the word driveway came out of my mouth, he interrupted and barked "it needs to be wider".
Thought it was kinda rude since he worked for the company I'd be spending money with but he was just a good ole boy hard ass. And yes, to this day, my driveway could be a little wider.
