Today is the first full day of spring, and to celebrate we got about 9 inches of snow. February was unseasonably warm (mean temperature of 44.1 on my weather station), but so far March has been cool and wintry with a mean temperature of 38.6. Even more snow may be on the way this weekend.

| Tree at our "Three Rivers Campground". (The "rivers" are actually small streams that can be crossed with one large step.) We haven't camped here since we built our house. |

| Staghorn sumac (Rhus typhina). |

| Our dog, Dakota, has to check out all of our small culverts that direct run-off under our road. He can find them even through a foot of snow. |
