still frost in the ground in my part of the state - road restrictions are still in effect.
I don't even think about planting my garden until the first week of June.
Yeah, typical Wisconsin spring.

We have had frost here in Oh. 2 times this May, that I can recall. It really makes a nice white vapor trail when you mow grass with frost on it. I think it`s all that globle warming.:rolleyes:

Well, roofs were white this morning. Not cold enough to hurt my fully blossomed crab though.

Popplecop Same thing here on the other side of the big lake.
When I sat down to finally get a turkey to come to the call for my son Tuesday morning I was sitting in frost. I was dressed more for November deer hunting than spring turkey hunting.
Good part is he got his tag filled with a good 2 year old. Thougt he missed with the explative after the shot. He had the gun on his upper arm instead of shoulder. Haven't seen the inevitable bruse yet. LOL

Maybe I will start planting garden this week end after the full moon is past.

Spring?? Shoot yesterday we had 5 inches of snow at the gun show and a LOT more in the mountans. Rain at home and it's raining today here at home. Winter is gettin old. 45 as I type this. One day spring will get here. We've had double our annual rainfall in the last 2 weeks(7 1/2 inches in 2 weeks). Ground is still suckin it up though.

I work 35 miles from my house. Today, the temperature difference was 30 degrees: 45 at work, 75 at home. The sad part is I only get to spend about 3 hours a day at home.

Must work in Superior. The lillacs and bridalwreath usually bloom there on the 4th of July.

Close, I work in Duluth.
With any luck, my garden will be planted tomorrow - then the drought begins.

just as I expected, after rain nearly every day I planted, and now no rain for more than a week and very hot. I wish I had a well, but have to haul water instead.
Like the old saying goes, "if it weren't for bad luck I'd have no luck at all."
