The Melt

Flood warnings are the order of the day here. We have a lot of snow. The drift is as high as my 6 ft. fence all along the nursery. We have been moving snow daily away from the house and out towards the garden and I am not sure we will get it all moved before it melts. Slowly it is melting. The afternoons are warmer now. Benedict is starting to come out from under his snow blanket and I can see more of the bench at the three sisters every day. There is going to be a week or so of wet snow that is cycling through freezing and thawing. It will be slippery but better than what is to come - the season of mud and molt.

  1. Sucks that more flooding predicted this spring for you. Snow is almost gone here in NS. Yesterday I saw crocus, tulips and hyacinth emerging. Time to get the leaves off the garden here.
