That's what I did today! And saved a little white pine in the process. He'll have some scars, but will live.

I've been keeping my eyes peeled for morel mushrooms. No luck so far. I think it's a little too cold yet. The ones that grow around here are all little dinky anyway. They taste good though, and that's about all I get from them every year - a mere taste!

Soon the asparagus should be popping up. I'll have to watch the ditches.
