A beautiful day today.  The sun is out and we should hit 70 without any trouble.  We worked in the large garden today.  I finished weeding the potatoes and onions and Norman finished weeding the rest of the garden and pulling out a couple more rotten tree stumps.  Now we have just two more stumps we have to plant around in the whole garden.  It looks so nice when it is ready to plant.  A few of the potatoes are up and all but the latest planted onions are up.  We then walked out to the bluff and Norman went back while I  was making dinner and picked up the trees that fell along the path.  Now he can drive his tracker all the way out to the bluff.  The kitchen garden now needs a little weeding so will do that tomorrow.  The beets are up as well as the spinach and lettuce.  There are about half a dozen pea up but more will come tomorrow.  The raspberries are starting to leaf out.  Each clump of leaves will grow into a branch and have lots of raspberries on them, look great.  The blueberry buds are almost ready to bloom and the pears are fully budded now.  Going to be a big crop if we don’t get another hard frost.  The crab apples are ready to bloom, they had lots and lots of buds.  The apple trees look like they are going to bud soon as does the grape vine and the cherry tree.  No cherries again this year as the Coke Cherry is not large enough to bloom and cross pollinate the large cherry tree.  There are five asparagus spears just poking their head up in two of the patches.  The newest patch shows no sign of life yet but that is fine as we can’t cut those this year anyways.  They need the time just to get strong and make larger roots.  No sign of life on the peach trees.  I am afraid we really did lose all of those.  They have been our best producer for three years but I guess the other fruit trees will have to fill in for them this year.   I just love it when spring finally comes and things begin to grow!!  Monday we will plant some green beans and zucchini.  If we get another frost after they come up we will just have to cover them.  Have a great day.
