First sign of spring

[Mike in Ohio]

I took this pic today, in my backyard. It won't be long until I can start digging again. I've got a couple promising spots lined up. Hope Y'all do too.

I noticed the first flowers of spring today also. a bunch of little purple ones.
I also noticed the pretty white flowers on the poison oak.
Yes, spring is in the air.

SPRING!?!?! [&:],

We just got 4 more inches of snow and it's 10 F outside! Hell, I won't be able to break ground for another 2 months! []

Ouch-and I was Bummed that it was 50 degrees this morning.
We'll try to keep you entertained until you can show us your finds.

Nice picture! Where I live the ground thawed out two days ago so earlier today I opened up two privies that I found out in the woods 3 feet down so when it freezes again I will be able to dig them. I think I will be going back tomorrow so I will let you all know what I find.

Hey Brian, I don't think the 'flat-landers' appreciate what we folks in the north have to put up with![] We have 10 months of winter and 2 months of rough sledding.... We picked up 24'' of snow in the mtns. yesterday, and about 14'' here on the coast. The only 'diggin' I did was shoveling out my driveway.[&:]
