On Gardening and Global Warming

Tuesday, April 14th, 2009

I keep saying to myself that I need to sit down and plan out the expanded garden.  It will be roughly 4 times the size of last year and I need to figure out what will go where and when things need to get in the ground.

However, global warming has not arrived in Northern Ohio as yet.  And although it is not snowing, there’s a cold rain falling that is right on the edge.

It’s hard to map out the garden when it does not appear it will ever be warm enough to plan anything.

Check back, really, it’s coming.

In the meantime, I present Maverick, King of the Garden:
