Again, not the best picture to show what is going on. The ground is way too soft to do anything. Les' tractor is tearing up the driveway behind me as he goes to feed the cattle. We wanted to bring in a truckload of topsoil to fill in the corners of the garden, but it is not going to happen anytime soon. Trucks and tractors are getting stuck everywhere. The ground is heaving all over town and the roads are a brutal mess.

The average temps for this time of year are a high of 15 and low of -1. We have yet to hit the average high since the beginning of March, although today we hit 10.

This is going to be one messed up season, and I thought last year was bad.
