Dahlia's Gone

The Ms today picked up another Dahlia to replace the one which the snow killed. Or so we thought. Lo and behold, the first dahlia is sprouting a couple new shoots.

Let's see how this goes!

PS. My apologies to the estate of Johnny Cash for the bad pun on the title.

Me versus the Ants

I have a really nasty ant problem, and with a kid and a cat who really like being outside I'm trying corn meal to see if it will kill them as dead as everyone says it will. From what I understand it's sweet tasting but the ants can't digest it so they starve to death.

Let's see how it goes!

Rain is a good thing

We needed it. The ground is super dry.

The forecast is calling for rain until tomorrow night. A nice soaking week do everything a ton of good.

On the downside is the weekend's hike is on hold. Plus 4C for a high while hiking is not our idea of fun!
