3. I’ll finish raking the leaves from the fall.
4. It will be harder to spot the cardinals in the woods.
5. My old cat will be ready to start killing things outdoors again.

From Subscriber Jan, thank you Jan!
I’m anxiously awaiting my crocus and daffodils ,but I know they usually get covered with snow at least once after they start blooming. I’ve really been enjoying your e-mails so keep them coming . P.S. if you see the guys from tv5 say Hi and tell them they are missed everyday. Jan
Jan, you are so right about the snow on the spring flowers. How they survive that cold banket, I’ll never know. I’d go right back into the ground with that treatment. Thanks for your post. Maureen

From Subscriber Ernie. Thank you Ernie! I agree with you. Maureen
Maureen,
At my place I raked up “6″ bags of lawn debris and edged all of the mulch beds. Our Daffodils are coming up
and we’re deciding what flowers to plant.
The air is warmer and I just love being out in the sun. In California they have wild fires and the earth shakes,
in Florida they have hurricanes and in Alabama they get tornadoes. I’ll take the snow and the change of seasons
and the planting and resulting flowers are reward enough for living where we do.
Peace
Ernie DeCaro
