Whew, long time no talk

I kind of already figured it would be awhile in between entries, but I've been very busy lately and I tend to forget the smaller things.

Winter has been pretty brutal this year despite the La Nina conditions we were supposed to be under. Although I can't say for certain that we are out of the woods as far as winter storms are concerned, I can say that with the seasons changing any snow we do get will not stick around for long.

Things are gearing up/winding down (depending on how you look at it) as graduation nears. I'm optimistic although I have some trepidation as to whether or not I'll be able to get through this Differential Equations class intact. Higher end mathematics were never my strong suit.

I really do wish I could post more "interesting" things than just my random updates and ramblings, so maybe I'll try to post pictures and/or links every so often. For instance, if you're interested in growing a vegetable garden this spring/summer (which I'm actually contemplating doing), but you, like me, don't know how to go about it, there's a great "How-To" guide here:

You'll also want to look at this accompanying map of Michigan's "Hardiness Zones": MI Hardiness Zones

Lastly, the average last frost dates in Michigan areas: Average Last Frost Dates in MI

Good luck on your gardening! I plan on trying my hand at some cucumbers and possibly potatoes, but we'll see. I have to find some space to grow this stuff, first. Have a great week!
