We were without internet for almost 2 days. I was able to catch up on some books I purchased recently, but I have a ton of messages to respond to. It was such a beautiful site this am when the sun was out, shining brightly, with a blanket of fresh snow on the farm. It always makes it look so renewed, like its freshly white-washed. 
The old-timers used to say the more snow we have, the better the garden! I hope they're right!
Cheers for springtime!
