Spring is Springing as we speak! Enjoy the show!
And don’t be late for Church Sunday Morning! Don’t forget to “Spring Forward” this weekend.
”Two roads diverged in a yellow wood,
And sorry I could not travel both
And be one traveler, long I stood
And looked down one as far as I could
To where it bent in the undergrowth;
Then took the other, as just as fair,
And having perhaps the better claim
Because it was grassy and wanted wear,
Though as for that the passing there
Had worn them really about the same,
And both that morning equally lay
In leaves no step had trodden black.
Oh, I kept the first for another day!
Yet knowing how way leads on to way
I doubted if I should ever come back.
I shall be telling this with a sigh
Somewhere ages and ages hence:
Two roads diverged in a wood, and I,
I took the one less traveled by,
And that has made all the difference.”
~ Robert Frost

Cold morning 🥶 Low 20’s with frost and some ice 🧊 I’m already 2 pots of coffee ☕️ in today… BUT, things are looking up! Tonight is the last Low freezing temperature of the month! That’s right 😮 Highs in the 60’s and 70’s as we roll into March! 💥
We have already past several milestones that say “Spring is Coming”!
- Super Bowl ✔️
- Fat Tuesday ✔️
- Ash Wednesday ✔️
- Valentines Day ✔️
- And Presidents Day is tomorrow! ✔️
3 weeks from Today is daylight savings ☀️ Our time will “Spring Forward” as we gain a longer day and approach the Vernal Equinox.
Me? – I’ve been out around the place all morning. Moving a few things, doing chores and getting ready for the season… Planning some new Gardens and Garden structures too 😊 Nothing satisfies my soul like it… “Spring is Coming”!
“He knows no winter, he who loves the soil,
For, stormy days, when he is free from toil,
He plans his summer crops, selects his seeds
From bright-paged catalogues for garden needs.
When looking out upon frost-silvered fields,
He visualizes autumn’s golden yields;
He sees in snow and sleet and icy rain
Precious moisture for his early grain;
He hears spring-heralds in the storm’s ‘ turmoil
He knows no winter, he who loves the soil.”
~ Sudie Stuart Hager
Enjoy this beautiful, cool day!

What a difference a weekend makes! The last couple of days have made me feel like Spring is here… I’m even drinking my coffee ☕️ on the porch again these last few days. We are post Groundhog Day, and Old Punxsutawney Phil didn’t see his shadow Friday morning… prognosticating that Spring is coming early! But, don’t pack away your Winter clothes just yet 💨 You will still need your jacket a little longer…
We are past the halfway point of Winters time… Let’s enjoy the rollout, the slow unfurling of the coming of Spring 🍃 To me, that’s where the magic lives…
“It won’t be long until the springtime, when we may open the windows and breathe God’s fresh air… Soon will the birds come back… How cheerfully Nature greets them. She puts out her leaves to hide their homes, and kisses them with the wind, the warm wind… Ah, Spring, we wait for you; for as the sap mounts the limbs of the tree so hope rises and we become bright again.”
~Charles F. Raymond
Have a Great Sunday!
PS: 1 week to the Super Bowl 🏈

The big news of the day is… Weather! It’s about to get COLD 🥶 What does that mean for our Gardens, our pets and even our Koi Ponds? Call in today with any questions you may have and we will help!
Here’s a copy/paste from an old article I wrote to help folks with their Ponds – 👇🏻
The #1 Rule if your pond ever Ices over – NEVER, NEVER, NEVER break the ice by banging on it! It can cause your fish great harm – it can even KILL them! To allow the escape/exchange of gasses in a frozen over pond, keep a hole open in the ice. This is IMPORTANT!!! It will keep the gases from building up under the ice and allow for oxygen exchange and keep your fish from suffocating. This will also allow the pump to get water if the surface is frozen. If you have a skimmer, this will be MUCH easier on you! The water movement will help keep the ice from forming. You may need to keep the hole open by adding water from a water hose, bucket or pan of water. (This is why I always say “keep a dry hose” or a 5 gallon bucket for this purpose! If & when you use your water hose be sure to drain it when finished-to keep it from freezing and bursting, or just keep it in your garage). You can also use a floating pond heater or a small pump in a shallow area to “flash up’ and break the water surface. Just do it!
We don’t get too many Ice Days’ here in West Tennessee, but when we do, it’s Never at a convenient moment… In other words, if your not prepared, it can be an emergency
Simple Winter Pond Tool Kit
1 – 5 gallon bucket 🪣 (use to add water as needed. Hot tap water from your faucet will melt a hole in ice if needed)
2 – Clean, dry Water-hose (store in garage or shed so it will be ready to go when needed)
3 – Floating Pond Heater (A floating heater will maintain a opening 🕳 in an ice covered pond. This will allow for oxygen exchange and will keep your Koi alive).
That my Pond Tip today – Be Prepared! Next week, you might thank me…
And don’t worry! Spring is Coming!
Another VERY important thing to take care of is our pets! Make sure they have shelter and warmth. We will be facing Sub Zero wind chills 🥶 We Love our pets 🐕 🐈⬛ 🐓
