How many of you believe in old wives tales? Well it thundered in February so it is suppose to freeze again in April. I hate to admit it but this one usually holds true although I hope not this year. I don’t garden but I have many friends that do and I hate to see their hard work spoiled by a late freeze. This week is a good one, nice temperatures and a little rain. I just hope we don’t have any big bursts of wind like we had last week.
