We had a wonderful time in Summit County. We returned home on Friday, 13 March. On Saturday, 14 March, all ski resorts in Colorado were closed due to the Corona virus. We feel very fortunate that we were able to ski and return home safely, yet we also sympathize with those that tried to ski this week only to have their vacations cut short.
Bode is off school for the next two weeks, and it could be longer depending on how things go. I prepared for the end of the world today by planting my garden. I planted some corn, tomatoes, peas, and broccoli in the first bed. Note I also put up a bird net--got to protect the crop!
Earlier in February, I planted some cucumbers, potatoes, and strawberries. All are progressing nicely.
The blackberries and blueberries from last year survived and are really blooming; the raspberry vines all seemed dead, so I cut them out.
Here's hoping for a good crop--we might need the food come June :-)
The carriage house is going great. All work that can be done up to this point has been accomplished. We are now waiting on the trusses, which will support the second floor. These should be delivered and installed this week.
Not much else to report; today was supposed to be Selection Sunday for the NCAA tournament...with no sports on TV, perhaps I'll watch a
Flash with Bode :-) Pleasant week to all.
