Thank god it's Friday

Sunny and 14 degrees. I'll be collecting more firewood from the yard today. Tonight is going to be brutal.

8:07pm - Never did break 25 degrees. Spent the day disbursing seeds for the swap. Have 8 more left to do. So much time handling seeds, I decided to start some in the basement. Rudbeckia "Cherry Brandy", Zinnia Envy, "Red Spider" Zinnia, "Battle of Gettysburg" Geranium, and two flavors of Salvia coccinea, red and purple.

Bright and sunny here this morning, Tom. So what if it's -12F! *chatter* S-s-spring comes closer e-e-every d-d-ay, right? Right? I'd weep, but afraid my face would freeze... ;-)

102 days til last frost. Looks like I'm going to be planting seeds in the basement tonight. That hoophouse is going to be stuffed come April 1.

I am interested in growing the new rudbeckia too. I haven't ordered seeds but I'm thinking about it. Looking ahead to spring, good therapy.
