RE: Springs a comin?

Patrick,
Sounds like she was a wonderful dog. I've heard that Jack Russells are
incredibly intelligent. I have an 80 pound lap dog. She likes the
garden. Eats the tomatoes and zucchini off the plants when I'm not
looking. She has never been interested in the pumpkins thank goodness!

Good heavens it's cold where you live! The sun actually came out this
weekend and I think it got to be around 60 degrees! We have an on again
off again winter around here. It could get warm like that and then snow
the next week. I do believe it has been warmer here this winter than is
normal. In a couple weeks I'll plant the peas (provided I can find
another sunny day). I won't even think about starting the pumpkins for 2
to 3 months. When do plant your garden?
