My ground is totally dig-able! (no frozen spots, just some unmelted snow in one pile which I just kicked apart and hope it melts). Yesterday I bought a pack of 2 Shrub Roses and planted those this morning. I know roses do good here because there are some existing ones that were just beautiful prior to winter. Temps should be in the low 50's this week.

So I feel fairly safe planting them.
Also I got a bunch of seeds. Yellow Squash, Cabbage, Green Beans, Basil. I also want to grow onions but didn't get any yet.
So now... since this is a new place for me - I am figuring out the prior garden layout. I can see at least 3 rows, & can make more I think, and am working on chopping & turning the dirt to prepare for whatever I put there. I do know exactly where my Basil is going.
Now, I figured I better come in and have lunch before I pass out.

I do that... work and don't eat til I just about faint. So.... I had a good talkin' to myself and here I await the microwaves "ding". DING! Bye!
