    In the last 30 days we have had over 5 feet at the ranch, I swear if the Shan says "It's sooooo Pretty" one more time
    A little to early to add things of top of the snow. It won't be there after it melts.

    That's exactly what mine says when I talk about moving south to a warmer climate.

    I try and time it with the storms, we got 7 inches today so it should have buried it but it almost buried me hehehe

    I was more thinking of it washing away in the water of the snow melt.

    This last winter was a bit hard on my little strawberry patch. I've had it for 3 or 4 years and they've never had this much browning.

    I used my yard rake to clean it up--kinda worries me but there's nothing else to do but wait and see. I'll be sprinkling steer manure on them as soon as it's out in the stores. It's 54 F right now and is supposed to get up to 60

    Oh yea! In fact a gal I used to work with raises horses and I could get all the 'Horse-St' that I would need. However with my little patch and one small container it's not worth going out to get it.

    If memory serves--I pay more per gallon of Non Ethanol Medium Grade fuel for my Harley than I do per bag of the 'Horse-St'.

    Back in the day after the garden was done dad would take me out to the 'Ranch' and we'd shovel his pickup full of 'Horse/Cow-St' and then spread it on the garden area. We would also go to a place that used to be a sawmill and shovel his pickup full of really old sawdust and spread it on the garden then in the spring he'd till it all in.

    Dad always had a good garden!
