Yesterday I called the Ranger Station up near Pinecrest (California), and they said there is ZERO snow right now, so my weekend overnighter in the mountains got replaced by a VERY productive cathartic day in the garden!
Last year I started strong but then spent literally half the year camping or backpacking (no regrets), so everything got neglected and died. But I'm excited about resurrecting it. Dumped a ton of fresh manure in there today, weeded, checked all the irrigation.
Feeling good!
