Yesterday our first hummingbird of the season arrived, tanked up for a couple of hours, and then flew off to parts unknown.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>

The yard got white (albeit briefly), when the heavy rain turned to huge spring snowflakes.<\/p><\/div>\n

This was just the sort of weather we were dreading might coincide with the arrival of the hummingbirds.\u00a0 The snowfall lasted for a few hours, and then the sun came out, sorta, and all the snow went poof, at least at our elevation.\u00a0 Across the valley from us the hills are all white again.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>

So Mishkin decided it was all just too much and he went into bug-in-a-rug mode.<\/p><\/div>\n

\"\"<\/a>

Curled up, and hiding from the world.<\/p><\/div>\n

\"\"<\/a>

"Why were you taking a picture, with a flash no less, and disturbing my nap?"<\/p><\/div>\n

Well, what can I say?\u00a0 I didn’t have a rug to hide under.<\/p>\n

Banana bread made using my traditional recipe, and Einkorn flour. First time making it with this flour, so we're looking forward to having some once it cools off enough for slicing.<\/p><\/div>\n

Nothing else happening.\u00a0 We have planted potatoes and onions in the garden, and have started tomato and pepper plants.\u00a0 And we have ordered the lumber and other materials with which to build a greenhouse.\u00a0 As soon as the weight restrictions for trucks are off the local roads, we’ll get our materials.\u00a0 Maybe next week.\u00a0 And then the fun begins.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
