Plenty of light in the mornings. The runoff runs onto of the frozen ground. It will be a couple more weeks before the ground absorbs it. Thats when the dandelions sprout. When the worms reappear. Until then it’s still winter.

Fresh snow overnight to remind us it’s still winter.

What’s that black shape bottom left in the first photo? Is it a rock or a tree stump? It looks pretty spooky!

You have a good eye. The black spot is an old burnt stump. The area burned about fifty years ago. Some of the old stumps still stand. I remember the fire although I was only a youngster. My parents drove us onto the mountain side opposite so we could watch it at night. It was quite a sight. This was before Global Warming so I’m not sure what started it. 🙂 Some of the wood in these old stumps are exceptionally hard from the fire imposed on the trees. I brought a piece home and making it into a crib board. Take care. Bob

They used to sometimes burn wood for boats as a preservative of the wood…

They did the same to railway ties.

I am planning on planting more broccoli and cauliflower and less spuds this year. I haven’t heard much from Frog Pond this year. Hopefully Bill is keeping you busy preserving the bounty. Take care.
