I think we're almost there. One more cold spell and hopefully, we're on the home stretch.

When I told my husband all that I had planned for today, he went back to bed! LOL I'm planning on pruning and spraying the apple tree tomorrow, sometime between church and Easter dinner. I better get a move on. So much to do and I am burying a friend from church at 11 am today. Rest well Chuck, your fight was long and hard. I know God is holding him now in his loving arms.
Just sitting here thinking about all that I need to do today is getting me tired before the day has even begun. I need to clean the dropping trays in the coop and also clean the nest boxes. I've got 14 chicks in a brooder sitting in my workshop and they are starting to stink the place so they need to be taken out while I replace the shavings.
Also the apple trees need to be pruned and sprayed. That project alone is going to take several hours. Yep, it's going to be a long day.
I don't know what Opa uses. But I've been doing a bit of research on Kaolin, which is an organic clay that can be sprayed on fruit trees. It is a bit pricey but after I get some more data I just might plant some fruit trees again.Opa, what do you spray with this time of year?
I just wish the snow would finally melt so we could even think of starting yardwork! I only have patches of bare ground against the house and under the pines. We need a warm rainy day here.
