Come and sit awhile...

Got some snow today - much needed moisture and ground cover for the fields. The upcoming season will be too dry if we don't get more. 

This bench sits at the front of our house in the middle of our herb garden. Its a beautiful place to sit awhile - even better with a cup of coffee and your favourite person (or animal) to keep you company. 

The bench faces south and looks down our driveway and onto fields upon fields of various crops - as far as the eye can see. (well at least in the summer it does...) 

Dreaming of summer....

Let it snow!

Never thought we would be wishing for snow after last winter! 

While moisture is a concern in all seasons, we are particularly worried this year. 

This fall was a dry one for us and half way through the winter, we are still seeing bare or partially covered fields. If this keeps up we will be dry this spring. 

Besides the potential for dry conditions in the upcoming growing season, another concern is for some of the perennials that are currently exposed and yet experiencing drops in temperature of -20C or lower. Our concern is that they may not come back in the spring.

So sing along with me, Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow...
