Frost in May?

We had to cover up the tomato plants tonight because they are predicting possible frost tonight. That's right, it's May 12. This is ridiculous. It's been a cold, windy day and I am just about to make some hot tea just to warm my hands up.

The plantings we've done so far are looking good; at least the ones that have come up. Elton's radishes are going crazy in the pots; I swear you can see how much they've grown each day. I'm so tempted to pull one up and see what's underneath, but don't want to waste them. The lettuce is about ready to eat, and the peas should be blooming soon. The strawberries are abloom and we should have some soon if the *&!@):^% weather ever warms up. I expect things to really take off when that happens. If ever.

I will continue with the yard description in a subsequent blog:-)
