WOW! What a great day it was yesterday, we hope you were able to enjoy some time outside. Unfortunately, that was a spring tease as the weather ahead is back to wet and cool. ( National Weather Forecast) So far, mowing this spring has been almost impossible due to the continual rain. See KATU's blog.

Record setting rain has kept most properties wet and soggy. We are trying to work around the rain and take advantage of any dry stretches but they have been few and far between. Luckily the temperatures have been below normal and most lawns have just barely started to grow.  In the meantime, we are continuing to prune shrubs and prepare shrub beds for the coming spring. As far as we were behind due to the snow this winter, a delayed start to spring has been a godsend to help us catch up.  

Remember the snow last Monday? That was reminder of the cold winter we had but the temperatures have warmed up since and there will be more pressure to mow going forward. However, the long range forecast is for wet and cool weather. Spring is here but it is a long way from summer.
