LanTerra Update > Warm and very sunny all week long. Here at home in rural Central Ontario I can honestly say its time to get started. This could truly be the nicest and earliest run of spring weather ever. Daytime highs have been approaching 20*C each glorious bright and shinning day. At nearly 15C above normal all the snow has gone and been replaced with brown carpet of expectant green to come.
I have been busy about the yard each evening puttering away. Between trimming the shrubs and trees I do manage to squeak in a few rest periods and take it all in. Robins and Geese oh MY! Birds and Singing oh MY! Spring is here and its darn well extremely nice and very early. Some how the urgent need to repair that pesky lawn mowers, cutting deck has struck me as though the head lights on my Ford F 150 just went on.
Tonight's chore was soil samples as the new homes of the 1385 Jutras, 901 Hunt, 1236 Vincent & 1330.5 Johnston/Butler demand the highest quality of increasingly fertile pumpkin soil. I am taking advantage of the soil and tissue testing regime that Western Labs is offering.
Its now time to rest my slightly sore and weary back. Writing this evening in a sort of silly calm with the windows open and the birds merely chirping along. The key strokes are very easy this evening as the days dying sunlit rays fall within an eyes glancing blow toward LanTera.
Its days like this that draw me outside year after year, ever deeper into this amazing hobby. The air is so clear and fresh, nature is so ready and ripe. I am pointed my shovel earthward in the most earnest way possible as another season begins.
