I am so glad the weather forecasters were wrong!

Yesterday had periods of sun and today!!! was dry & nearly clear all day. The sun was out and we worked out in the yard. I couldn't make the chicken house little doors as I had no plywood pieces that were big enough, but I got all the posts in for the run and measured to figure out how big to make the rabbit run - I am planning to put it on top of the compost bins-no moving poop, LOL. I got some spinach planted and a few garlic bulbs - obviously I forgot again to plant it last fall as there appears to be none coming up. I got out the hoses and the row covers so I'll be ready to get some planting done as soon as it warms just a bit more & dries out some, too, of course. I made some really nice sourdough french bread today. I got a new starter - the Oregon Pioneer Starter from Nichol's Garden Nursery - as my old one was just not doing well anymore. It never did have much flavor anyway, so I decided to get a new one. I got the kitchen curtains washed & pressed. Here's a photo of Spring Cleaned curtains around the dining area window looking out at still leafless willow trees.

How fresh and inviting that corner looks! Here in the valley below you we also had a decent Sunday. Mike pruned and I did some weeding and we drove the old beater pick-up off to the landfill only to discover it closed on Sundays. We had to go back on Monday.
