We helped our annuals to survive the threat of overnight frost. The low was 34°F; a week earlier, the high was 92°F.

Frost Warning
Got a car-load of plants for the garden.
Hosing Down the Porch
Hosed down the porch. We’ll be enjoying wine on the porch this evening, taking advantage of the warm weather.
Spring is Here
On my walk round Lake of the Isles: the skating rink warming house being removed. Strong evidence Spring is here.
Newcastle Brown Ale
Shopped at the end of my run: saw a beer truck naming the city where I grew up. Sadly, Walgreens doesn’t sell beer.
Three Lakes Walk
Walked around three Minneapolis lakes.
Warming House Setup
My path was blocked by a warming house being set up for the Lake of the Isles rink. There was no skating today.
Still-Colorful Yard
A good day to work in a still-colorful yard.
End of Irrigation Season
Prepared for winter: pulled potted plants off life support.
Freshest Kale
The kale in our yard is looking pretty good, so I picked some for dinner.
