The official Status Update thread #209....So this is spring...???

My wife wanted to buy a tiller today. We never had one but rented one at Lowes.

I won't be using mine this year. I've got a Troy-bilt that just pulverizes soil and sod. Comes out about the consistency of coffee grounds.

I spoke too soon about the wind. It's back with a vengeance.

Don't turn the heat down if you're frying them. They'll soak up the grease. Unless you like that.

I was thinking that. But better than burnt.

It is food time so of course a kid shows up. This is not a new thing.

I married the best cook and baker, handed down from her mother. Can't blame them.

 

[DoggyDaddy]

Howdy target!

I guess I need to go put all of my plants back in the garage...

I've always been the cook and baker (chief cook and bottle washer). DoggyMama didn't cook a lick for the most part.

Hi mom. I went ahead and did that. I don't want to have to replant. The latest I saw was a low of 35 here, so that could go either way depending on wind. Not a hard freeze at least, but definitely could be a frost issue.

 

[Sigblitz]

Ours aren't in yet. 40's here but maybe I should put them on the freezer.

 

[Sigblitz]

38° tonight.

WTHR was saying 40's on their morning news, but their website says 35, so who knows?

After tomorrow night, I might be able to just leave them out...we'll see. My trail cameras showed 19 yesterday morning. That explains the amount of ice in the hummingbird feeders and on the bucket I have out for the critters.

 

[DoggyDaddy]

Tomorrow will be after Mothers Day. No frost allowed after Mothers Day!

I think there's one more night in the middle of the week we'll have to cover.

NO! I said !

Checked the forecast. Looks like we're in the clear.
