Early Spring

The weather is crazy; we've been having 70 degree days for the last week and a half.  It is making me nervous that we're gonna really get it later...It's only March, after all.  We could technically still get a foot of snow, although at this point it's hard to imagine.

The Girl and I planted lettuce and spinach out back yesterday in one of the raised bed squares.  Pretended to be fancy and rowed it in an X pattern corner to corner in the box.  This photo is what inspired me although I'm nowhere near this ambitious:

We also planted our pepper seeds two days ago (roughly 8 weeks ahead of last frost free date) - Jalapeno, California Wonder, and Carnival, 3 pack cells of each type. 

Spring, I love you but I'm not sure if I'm ready for you.
