    Was out walking around the yard and actually saw some growing things. It got down to 17 F this morning, but the sun is out but a 20 mph wind out of the south. Even though it's southerly the wind is still cold. The climatis out front has some green leaves on it and quite a few leaf buds. The climatis by the basement door has just a few on it. The ditch lillies by the end of the house are up about an inch. But no sign of them in the lilly "hedge". But it won't be long until everything starts greening up.

    Brrrr, that is certainly to cold for being out very long. Great to hear spring is on its way.

    Well, I'm jealous Capt! I was out roaming my landscape over the weekend, and could not find anything green...
    The new little Azalea has buds... that is about it for now. Hurry up spring!! (as we await another snow storm coming)
