january thaw

the eleventh of january finds temperatures somewhat elevated...this will be ending this evening they say as winter makes a return for the weekend...

a quick look out back shows me that the four or so inches of snow we had on the ground until recently did the job of insulating the winter rye from the cold...hoping fro more coverage before the next sub=zero cold...

the same snow did the same insulating job for the garlic in the bed of my truck...the asparagus i cut down from the community garden did its part as well...the overwintering is going okay...so far...
