SPRING IN SIGHT

We got a few more inches of snow last night and hoping this will be the last one of the season.  It is almost spring and we are more than ready.  We have a few plants coming up and need to get outside some more to prepare the garden space for this year.  We had a nice hike the other day down the Knobstone trail by Elk Creek Lake and we are also ready for some more hiking this year!  I have a new tent and sleeping bags ordered and they should be here by tomorrow.  More blueberry seeds ordered to and hopefully these will do better then the last bunch!  We also got a new bunny and a bunch of new puppies!  That's the latest updates for now.

Garden time

Got the garden tilled, ready to plant seeds today. According to the almanac it is time. The kids are ready. They enjoy planting that garden! If I can just find a way to get them enthused about pulling out the weeds when they pop up we will be doing great!

Taxes

Tax time again, and I have been gathering all the paperwork. It's alot harder when you have your own business when it comes time to taxes. I think I have most of it all done though and looks like we will get back a refund. (Much needed) I got my seeds in the mail I ordered for the garden. I can't wait to plant them. I am going to start an inside garden first so it won't be long.

Getting Ready For Spring

I may be jumping the gun here but I am ready for spring. This 20 degree stuff is getting old. If I can't be all the way snowed in I just want spring to come. I ordered some seeds on the internet and can't wait to get them started. I studied out how to make some home made pots to plant them in and I am ready to start my garden early.

What do you do when you run out of food

Now is the time to be buying extra food and also seeds. You will have to grow your own food when things get real bad. You don't need that much land to grow food. You do need seeds though. Start buying seeds now. Try to read everything you can about gardening and growing your own food. Learn what is edible when it comes to wild plants and what is not! Be sure you know the difference.
