I’m really pretty freaked out by this patch of day lilies growing already. There are lots of things popping up in the backyard, I could probably plant kale right now… bugs are gnawing away at the trees and don’t be surprised if there is a late hard freeze that kills a lot of fruit trees. We’re going to pay somehow for these “nice” days… I was standing outside three or four days ago and thinking that I really miss winter. In the middle of February, I’m thinking nostalgically of this passing “winter”.
Here are the really interesting stories I found today…
