The Broody Bunch

Today was absolutely perfect!  The temp was up in the mid 50’s, the sun was shining and the sky was blue.  We’ve had some pretty harsh winds for a few days but it’s dried up a lot of the water that was lying around.

I finally had the opportunity to do some yard work.  Little Maiden helped me rake the leaves from around the gardens.  I cleaned up the leftovers from last year’s garden, pulled a few weeds (extremely few thanks to SFG!) and turned over the soil.  That loose black soil felt so good in my fingers and smelled so fresh!  I can’t wait to start planting.  It still goes below freezing at night so I guess I’ll have to wait.  Most planting in Maine doesn’t start until Memorial Day.  ~sigh~  However, the rhubarb is already coming up!!
