    I was very pleased to discover that my day length in MA for 2/1/15 is 10 hours & by the end of the month it will be 11 hours! A discovery that cheers the soul just as another winter storm is about to descend.

    Waretrop--ditto here, only in my case it is parakeets. If our daughter decides to shower in the middle of the night (don't ask), they wake up with the light & the sounds of water running & chirp their heads off.

    Glad you all like the link. I got it from Margaret's AWaytoGarden.com. http://awaytogarden.com/february-garden-chores-2/ I like her website.
