February.

So, here north of Boston, we've had about 30 inches of snow on the ground since December. Our greenhouse has no skin on (2 plastic sheets for a roof) and so there is -- you are doing a great job putting this together -- 30 inches of snow on the greenhouse floor.

(Not sure if it can really be called a floor, since there's no ceiling. But it's not really the ground either.)

By March 1, the greenhouse needs end walls and doors, skin on, and heat and fans hooked up & running so we can start all of the onions/leeks/shallots. WILL THIS HAPPEN?? is a question I have asked myself about 8x a day in the past weeks. It's hard to put skin on in wet snow. It's hard to do much of anything, really.

However. Today it is 52 degrees! Things are melting. The rest of the week looks great, according to the almighty National Weather Service, so I'm thrilled. And look at the rest of the week:

Please don't try to subliminally acclimate your readers to the sight those rotten industrial turbines by including them in your weather report. I never thought you would join the corporate forces of Big Wind, but I guess we all have our moments of weakness...
