Yesterday's chore.
Today's bit of siding.
Elizabeth's tulips return.
Chionodoxa were suddenly up.
Frances' hellebore blooms.
The Spots inspect the bed preparation in the road side vegetable garden annex.
Ready for the last bit of wood chips.
And we head back home.

Happy birthday, Christopher! On friday the 13th even. This came as an email to me from Blotanical. You will have messages in your plot there wishing you a happy day. :-) Your veggie bed is going to be fabulous, so large and full of good things for the soil. I want to recommend the sugar snap peas. They freeze well I just found out, trying a pack from last year to clean out the freezer. There were doubts about soggy limpness, but while not crisp, they made a most excellent stir fry with olive oil and basalmic vinegar added at the end. I am going to plant more of them today. Your cozy cabin is no longer Lowes house, hooray!

What a walk. All looks good & a lot of hard work has been done. Yea, no longer Loews house.
Lots more space for more goodies. The Spots look right at home. Seems as though they are checking things out to make sure you got it right.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY. Hope you have many more. March is a good month.
Boy this internet is a sly thing. I was just going to ignore this birthday on this blog. Thanks Frances and Lola.
I think in another two weeks around the first of April is when I will seed my first lettuce, spinach and snowpeas kind cool crops.
Happy Birthday Christopher. It is such fun to see the Spots out and about with you. You are making such good progress in your garden. It seems odd to me that even though you live on a cold mountain side your daffs etc are all ahead of mine. Hmmmm.... Have a good day and eat plenty of ice cream and cake.
Thank you Lisa. Bev said they same thing. The bulbs up here are ahead of hers in zone 7 and this sure isn't a zone 7. It must have been the heat wave we had last week that cranked things into high gear. That's over now and the bulbs should return to a slower pace.
Yes, there will be cake.
Ha, I didn't know but Happy Birthday too! It is indeed fitting that a gardener should have a birthday at the beginning of spring - new birth, so to speak. The plants celebrate with you.

Lovely photos. The cats are especially cute!
Hi Christopher! And a Happy Birthday to you!!! I thought I recalled from last years posts that you had a birthday around now (the only way I remembered is because mine is in March too). :)
Your garden is going to be awesome this year. It looks so fresh and clean with all that new wood mulch spread about. Soon the green will be sprouting forth. All your blooms are beautiful. My bulbs still are not blooming and I am just over the mountain from you...go figure. It must be that "bulb fertilizer" that Bulbarella uses in the Spring. I must try some of that. Have a great birthday weekend and remember to take some time for yourself.
Happy Birthday Christopher & a special hug to your Mom for birthing you....
Thanks Bev. Now we are having a cool spell to help keep things in suspended animation. Maybe that will work on me to.
Hi Chiot's Run. The cats adopted me last fall and have kept me company all winter. They walked down with me to their soon to be new house.
Happy Birthday Siria! This year's veggie should be good. I may need to learn how to can and freeze things. The assortment of daffodils here includes a lot of the early bloomers so we have a long bloom season. Your bulbs may just be later varieties.
Hi Miss Nalani. My mom is feeling dizzy and nauseous today. Must be a flashback. Happy Whale Day to you!
I said March was a good month. I'm learning that there are a lot more with this months BD. My oldest 2 days before mine. 1 brother also. I think all together we have the month about covered.
Hope your Mom is feeling better soon. That vertigo is for the birds.
Happy belated birthday! I feel for your mom...vertigo has been putting me out of commission on a regular basis for the last year. Hope hers gets better faster than that!
