We had what I am hoping was our "onion snow" just this past Wednesday.

For those who don't know what that is...

The folks round my neck-o-the woods get antsy to plant their root vegetables after the last frost. I never pretend to out guess Mother Nature. She's been known to bite my ass on too many occasions. But the locals say that is if snows near Easter, and the ground can be tilled...it's time to plant the "onyons"...and all the other "rut" vegetables.

I hear there's been a bit of tilling and planting lately! Spring has sprung!
