Signs of Spring

The fruit trees have budded but not flowered yet. Yet, we're into spring weather anyway: partly sunny days, interspersed with clouds, hail, and even snow! My friend Jon came down from Seattle recently, and Nate and I gave him a brief tour of the farm; so many projects, so little time.
