  1. Significant inversion this morning. I was up in the 40s on the hill at the house, but noticed a solid frost down in the fields on the way to town.
  2. Yep, we've had at least four or five mornings with scattered frost already but nothing below freezing.
  3. We are way behind. Had some frost this morning so not a big deal except for the lack of early season stuff. Supposed to get it tilled tomorrow, then will have to fence out the chickens. Hopefully will get much of it in the ground by Friday. MIL says we are getting our own tiller for the tractor next year.
  4. Still waiting on the first tomato, should be pretty soon. Have had some sweet corn in the last couple of days. Wife has put up a bunch of green beens, but they have been a little buggy this year. Lots of squash, cukes, and zuchini. She has been dehydrating some if the squash and zuchini. Was a little behind on the okra so its still a ways off.
  5. Good luck with the chickens. They were my first foray into farm animals, and now several years later I've still got them. Make double sure to keep them out of the garden. They are awful on seedlings, but great on post season cleanup. They can make a mess if they get into places you don't want and it is a balance to find the right amount of free-range/pen time. Once you get used to fresh greenery fed eggs the store bought ones are hard to go back to.
  6. Nice write up on the New Year's Storm from 63/64 from OHX and HUN: http://www.srh.noaa.gov/news/display_cmsstory.php?wfo=ohx&storyid=96629&source=0
