Every winter we get a few breaks when you can go out and spend some time in the garden. Yesterday was absolutely perfect for picking up sticks and leaves.
It got up to 49F.
There are a few spots where the weeds were flourishing. Even flowering.
There are few weeds in the raised beds but the ones that are there were getting pretty big. I pulled them all.
The last of the lettuce was down for the count.
The tulips are eager to get going.
This morning was very cold and clear with freezing fog and hoar frost.
The silly blue birds were in the middle of their mating ritual and checking out the bird house. I've even seen a few robins. They'll have to face reality though. The ground hogs are predicting an early spring but I think we have at least a month to go.
Here in the PNW, we've had some nice warm dry days too. I have also been out weeding and am so excited to be getting ahead of the game!

It was amazing in person. The fog showed all of the beams of light.
