The seeds I planted 10 days ago are starting to sprout and germinate! It's so exciting, as this is the first time I've ever direct-sowed seeds this early in the year. Yes, there's no guarantee we won't have more frosts or cold temps, but I chose varieties that should be able to withstand some of that. I believe these might be the spinach seedlings. I love watching the little seedlings poke their heads through the ground, and all the diverse textures in the compost/soil. This also provided McDoogle & McDuffie an opportunity to run free, yet stay safe within a fenced-in area. And of course, Gordon had to visit, bark and harass them, even if it was through the fence. Here he is checking out a log that must have been on the side hill. The next thing I know, Gordon picks up the log and runs with it, down Rider Hill Road, and onto the neighbor's property! I know he loves sticks, but this was a pretty good-sized log! The boys also had there share...
