Season 2019 journal

Greetings,

I hope you all are in various stages of planning your garden -unless you're lucky and have started it already. We had a moderately dry January here, but the past few weeks have been wintry. A couple nights ago we had fierce winds, howling all night and kept me awake. We could hear all kinds of stuff flying around and many trees came down. In the morning while having my coffee I looked out the back yard and noticed things missing. The gas grill and the WSM smoker had lost their covers, and a large canoe that was tucked against the fence was gone. I went around the property looking for it, it was blown/slid over 150 ft and was caught by the far fence.

So i can honestly say I started my 2019 garden, and my first planting was a 16ft Mad River Canoe.

Back inside, I couldn't wait either and early February, I started 2 flats of walla-walla onions. I had an older unused pack, and didnt want to waste it. Seeds germinated in 4 days, but many didn't. So I bought a new pack, divided and added it between the 2 flats. Here's how things looked today.
