    Got to love the weather recently.. this weekend was cold in the negatives here in CT. .... today, mostly cloudy and we should hit 50F. Not complaining too much though..I can let the woodstoves go out now and clean the ash we made this weekend.

    Hi Pat, I add some ash to my compost piles and gardens to control acidity. I also sprinkle it on the lawn as its good for the grass and slows down the mosses and any acid loving weeds. Its about the only thing I will put on my weedpatch...I mean lawn.

    Still in the 80's here every day. I've heard the old folks say that fruit trees aren't to be trusted as a sign of spring when they leaf out. They often get nipped by a frost. The real proof that Spring has arrived is the oaks leafing out. I noticed yesterday afternoon that tiny leaves have just started to pop out on them. I hope the oaks are right. My blueberries are in their full glorious bloom right now. If we have a frost I will have no blueberries this year.

    In the patio right below our new place, about 15" of snow fell Tuesday/Wednesday. Then the wind picked up and the snow was blown into a sand dune structure,

    Lots of physics learning at play here.
    At my age, everything is irritating.

    I'd have loved playing in there as a kid. I'd have made it my fort. I was more of a little boy than a little girl, much to my mother's consternation.

    I live in Northern Ct at 800 ft. It has it's own climate compared to the rest of Ct.
    Tues night we had a little over a foot. First real snow this year. The other one was in Dec but it was only 4-5 in.
    So far it's been a winter without a winter. MY pond, which is a little less then a 1/4 acre never really froze and usually
    it would have 1-1/2 ft. of ice this time of year. Something is going on.
    I'll take the warmth,bring it on.

    Weather has been drunk lately.

    Two weeks ago in the mid 40s, last week in the low 20s with snow, this week was in the mid 20s with some snow until today where at 05:30 it was 45 degrees out and had drizzled a little rain.

    Still in the mid 80's here. I have a strong urge to plant summer stuff, but I won't...Yet. I've ordered some seeds that I'll plant. That's safe enough 'cause I can bring them in if it turns cold.

    What I worry about is that if we can have late Spring in the winter, we could just as easily have winter in the summer.

    Lol...I do love it, but it's so strange that I can't help but worry about it. You know, we're all waiting for pics of the fish.
