Hello My Friends,
Thank you all for visiting "A Walk in the Woods". After the longest, coldest, darkest and snowiest winter in recorded history (here in Methuen), I do believe that it is starting to feel a little bit like spring. We just had our first 60 degree day since last November. The 108 inches of snow that we received over the last five months has finally melted. However, we still have snow in the yard and there is a lot of snow in the woods behind the house. The rivers are high and moving at a dangerous rate of speed. The robins have finally returned. That is always a good sign. Small shoots, skunk cabbage, red buds on the trees are forming and bits of green are starting to pop up in the marsh. The herbs in the garden out back are poking through the leaves. We have survived another New England winter.
I have started my plants for the garden. I hope you have started yours, too. Although, it is not too late if you have a sun room or a good south facing window. I planted tomatoes, peppers, broccoli, watermelon, cucumbers and zucchini. Also, I have lots of flowers planted, from last years seeds: impatiens, sunflowers, daisies, marigolds, and even some Stella D'oro daylilies. So, I am looking forward to a great summer and a wonderful garden to enjoy.
That is it for now. Check back for more photos and don't forget the music at the bottom of the page.
Bye for Now, Keep in Touch.
Bob
