Slept through another Super Bowl today. Working overnights will do that to you. Now with no TV and no city papers in the area, I may not ever find out who won. And the local team is in the game.

Time to find my jacket
The heat wave that happened last weekend has disappeared and temperatures are back to normal. I may have to slip on a jacket, but temperatures are a lot nicer than two weeks ago. 30 degrees I can handle. Below 10 degrees, not so much.
Starting the garden
I started some pepper and tomato seeds indoors yesterday. Now I need to start some frost tolerant greens in my raised beds. With covers they should be okay for the next couple of weeks.
Crack free Wendy’s
I ran some errands in town and ended up at the library. McDonald’s is in back of the library, but a Wendy’s has opened across the street from McDonald’s.

I had a shipment of seeds due to come in today, but they are stuck in the postal system. At least the rain held off until the mailman went by. I got to get some seeds in the starter trays this weekend, which for me begins on Tuesday.
Seed starting starts now
I just got a large seed order from Territorial today. My Baker Creek order arrives tomorrow. Now is the time to prepare for both indoor and outdoor starts. With the temperature in the 60s and lows well above freezing. I might not even have to put the cover on my raised beds for a week.Continue reading “Seed starting starts now”
Gas spike
Monday morning I went to get gas and paid $2.65 a gallon. When I drove by that evening the price was $2.80. I wonder what the price will be tonight. At least I don’t have to worry about it for the next three weeks.
