Hello March!

March started out with a quick to see my mom last weekend.  The weather was supposed to be gorgeous.  It was not!  But it didn't stop workers from working!  Jeff brought his chainsaw and pruned two peach trees among other things.  Zane also got to use a saw which was super exciting for him.  He did a good job with all his safety gear on. 

On our way to Grandma D's Friday night!

I couldn't even see Zane when I checked on him that night.  :)

Workers getting ready to go!

Red Baron peach tree blooming it's heart out.

Super old pear tree.

LOTS of algae in the creek

Hiking with our trail leader, Zane

I saw several plants with perfect water droplets on them.

Pretty flower

This lichen by Zane was such a brilliant orange.

Happy to be crafting in a warm dry house.

Now for the work.  Old old peach trees needed pruning bad.a

He was so proud to be using the saw. 

Tree cave!

Hopefully the pruning will be good for them!

 We came back home to freezing temperatures the next day.  I could not stand to have our loquats ruined so I covered them with the help of our wonderful neighbor. 

Trouble lamp inside to try to keep it from freezing.

At night.  What a sight!  :)
