Spring has sprung here in south Texas. It is 73, muggy, and stormy.
I have my garden started. I planted herbs, flowers, lettuce, cucumbers, and started my tomatoes outside.
It is weird to be planting already. I moved here to Texas this past July. Spring usually didn't get to Ohio until May.
Have a wonderful day. |

I walked across our backyard for the first time in months this afternoon. Slippery and wet but you can just smell spring in the air!
Count your blessings! |

Signs of spring showing up everywhere! It's been in the 60's for the past few days. Loving it.
Small farm farmers rock! |

Grass is getting green and I saw some daffodils in bloom yesterday. Yay for spring, my favorite season.
This makes me want to drag the travel trailer to a park somewhere and sit around a campfire.

I just noticed that in the regional hills, the bushes are turning color since we have had some weather in the 20's.

| Claudia, I live outside of Colville and am fairly new to this area and always wondered why does Deer Park get colder temperatures than up here? Stay warm! JoAnn |

Ha Ha! I just gritted my teeth!! ;0) I know there are micro climates all over and my Dad used to tease me when my husband & I moved here by telling me we had moved to a snow belt. Colville is in a valley and I know that Kettle, being on the Columbia is warmer. To say all that, I really don't know, but I am friends with Jason Kadah (former KREM meteorologist) & I shall ask him. Then we both will know. Where do you live around Colville? I used to have family around Kettle Falls and my folks had a farm north of Chewelah. I hope you enjoy Colville. Have been into the "Talkin' Coffee" to get latte's when we drive though. Would love to see the new hospital, as I am a retired RN. Maybe in the future. Have a great weekend.

| I live southwest of Colville about 8 miles from Colville. We are at about 2400 feet so we are a little colder than Colville. During the winter it's quite interesting to go to town. Could be snowing here, freezing rain half way down and raining in Colville. We moved from Mn so the winters are balmy compared to there. What I really have enjoyed are the summers and lack of humidity. Haven't been to that coffee place yet but did you know we now have a Starbuck's in the Safeway store.JoAnn |

JoAnn....a Starbucks!!*%^+! Well, you should have one...after all Colville is the county seat. Perfectly understand about how the weather can differ all over. Some friends were surprised that my squash leaves had frozen. Good thing I had enuf coverings for the cukes, maters, peppers & zukes. Wow!
