I grew up in the shadow of Grand Mesa. All my life I was told we could start planting when all the snow is melted on the point of Grand Mesa.
We just finished watering all the corn ground—so, around Mother’s Day, (if not before :0 )we will plant. Safely—because, after all, the snow is gone from the point on Grand Mesa. 🙂
Seijaku (say-jah-kool—–Japanese): Profound peace and stillness found in deep moments of solitude and gentle, quiet reflection. Seijaku reminds us that solitude isn’t loneliness. It’s a magical place of self-discovery and renewal.

Not many this year. The big amount will be in alfalfa. Huge amount of work we have facing us. Hay takes tons of work

I’m glad that the melt has let you know it is time for planting. Isn’t Spring wonderful?
