This is it- no more snow!

We got the ladders dug out of the snow pack and the van removed from its snowy resting spot on Tuesday afternoon. The snow is disappearing quickly and we enjoyed some lovely, sunny days of pruning this week. With the use of our new found ladders we were able to prune the tops as well as bottoms of the trees. The rain we're scheduled to have will wash this snow away completely. Good riddance! We look forward to lots of sunny days with moderate temperatures and not too windy please. There is still plenty of pruning to do in the apples and once finished we can start on the cleanup. Then, there is always the peach orchard to prune and then the raspberries and blackberries after that. Oh yeah- don't forget the greenhouse work, compost application, plowing, and other field work. Spring is closing in fast.
