Okay, enough with the snow picture. The last little bits of leftover snow from where we'd piled it up to open gates, etc., have finally melted in this onslaught of warm rain. I can't believe that just last week we were looking at the pond and despairing that it would fill up this winter. Every once in a while we get a dry winter and the pond doesn't fill up and then we run out of irrigation water too early. Well, not this year. As of this morning the pond is up above the outlet where it flows into the adjoining marsh. Alright, now that the pond is full it can stop raining.

Love your new header Margaret and your writing today - but did rather like the snow. Looks pretty but not so pretty to have to work in, is it.
