More comprehensive update

Between not having a keyboard and being pretty survival-oriented, I haven't been posting much besides data collection. However, future me will want to know: it really feels sunny lately, and I didn't wear a coat to work yesterday, just a scarf and jacket. The sun just goes on and on after work, and on my coffee break walk with a coworker it was brilliantly bright out.

I'm planning to plant peppers on March 1, I think, and tomatoes mid-March (or maybe everything mid-March?). Mid-March gives me roughly eight or nine weeks until plant-out, maybe 10. I guess true potato seed and tomatillos should be April 1st. I have some pretty exciting plans.

The muscovies are laying. The geese are fighting and it's time to separate.

My driveway is a 6" slab of polished skating rink with a few inches of snow on top. We keep getting an inch of snow at a time, then a thaw.

I'm going to pick up my pork from the Vanderhoof processor tomorrow and see how their work is.

Entering a very busy period here: Tucker visit, another contract due at work, hair dye appointment, work conference, then the landrace speaking thing. Very social too, I guess.
