   It was so cold and raw all day yesterday Bekah didn't start the furnace in the second greenhouse.  This morning's sun is warming it up nicely,  she'll let the sun bring it up to temperature, she'll start the furnace as the clouds move in.  I always planned to move into the cold frames on April 1st.  Bekah has been spoiled since she took over, the weather has allowed her to move March 25.  She moved into the back room on the 18th last year.  This year it will be the 31st.  It is forecast to be warm enough to move plants this afternoon.  It's up to 33 now.

   I chased two cats out of my kitchen garden this morning.  I need to get the water pistol I got for Christmas loaded and ready.  I yelled and threw a glass of water at them this morning.  One was hiding under the Christmas tree, Time to get rid of it.  The tree, not the cat.

   Sunday's snow will slide off the greenhouses and pile up around the bottom, keeping out the cold.

   May your day be blessed, Sally
