Spring/summer? Not fair it's still winter here in the Northeast!

That's what I thought, but if it stinks so bad why would she have it for firewood?

She wasn't saving it for firewood. She was saving it for other unknown purposes and just happen to have it cut to firewood length and just "happened" to store it in the barbeque shed.

Winter was what it felt like here today. Damp and not warm.

Spring = pigs and snakes.
Whipper was too worn out throwing snakes around to chase the 33 pigs off.
Anybody missing their pigs?

Fg19, I think Whipper keeps the deer out of the asparagus because I only have a 4' fence around them.

Whoa! You look like you need a serious pen trap for those hogs.

Save a pig - ADOPT A PIG: Pick one out name it and send me your $.
I'm looking for funding from PETA as a pig sanctuary. Any PETA people out there willing to donate. Send $ early for best choice of adopted pig.
The names Oscar and Spot are already taken. Eddie has Oscar and
this one is called Spot.
(Spot is pre-trained in pasture aeration.)

RIGHT! 31* here?, "they said" is was going to be 39* so I didn't cover my tomatoes!

Kyle: Good luck with your spuds, bud. I'll get my onion sets (bulbs) into the ground this week . . . I think. Farmgirl: I never have a problem with deer because I use a simple, light-weight 7' deer fence fabric available from TSC or many other stores. It's cheap and easily strings up on 8' T-posts. It will keep your deer at bay and put a smile on your face because it is the easiest solution. My wife came in with a fist-full of asparagus yesterday. Where I had a brain-fail and tilled is doing just fine. I look forward to lots of tasty meals and salads this year.:licking: With asparagus, you have to be patient and give it a couple of years, but it will reward your patience with many delicious spears in the years to come. Ground prep, good, rich soil (chicken manure is excellent fertilizer) and good water will make you more asparagus than you can eat.

And my wife bought a couple of potted plants; flowers already blooming, and re-potted them in a much bigger pot outside yesterday.

Never, NEVER believe the weather people. None of them put food on your table. It was 28 F on my west side deck this morning and our car said 31 F with frost on the rear glass. I hope your tomatoes survive. Always better to be safe than sorry.

That's why we have this separate thread. We aren't snobs, but realize we have totally different weather. I sure hope spring comes to the northeast for good very soon. You folks need some breaks.

I "felt safe" with a 7* ""spread"":laughing: Glad I wasn't at the horse races. I'm hoping they survived, they are small and buried pretty deep, should know by the afternoon.

Will this warm weather and rain ever stop... :laughing: on the gulf coast.. Lou

I was just thinking that I might be willing to adopt Spot, if Don would kill, skin, and gut him first.

Bird, I think BlueRiver knows somebody in Muenster who could help you with those chores.

 

[txdon]

Spot is not for eating . . .just like Oscar and Whipper are off limits. . I do have a non-rat-catching yellow cat that you might be interested in.

Yeah, and we need to go up there, too, because I'm nearly out of smoked cheddar and completely out of their smoked bratwurst.

Bird .. I've never been to Hess's market ... my friend told me he stopped their and bought some of their "course" ground smoked German sausage ... claims its a better sausage than Fischers
