The St John River opened up in front of our house today. It's good that it opened up so the melted snow water and rain can go down river. Hopefully we won't have a flood this year. Keeping my fingers crossed.
As you can see there is still lots of snow around but at least we can see green grass at last.
I've been dyeing wool and hooking on my Grandmother's Trunk rug Challenge and I get a little done everyday. Today I had boil my last batch of wool again to remove some dye as I couldn't get exactly the color I was after also I clean and scrub three calf pens and only had time to hook for about an hour. I got to get back to it. Sorry no pictures yet...
Thanks for dropping by and I appreciate your comments so much. Have a great weekend. JB

Hi Julia, The river looks pretty. It does look like spring because your seeds are sprouting.I planted some sunflower seeds and transplanted some plants that were in the wrong spot.We got a tiny bit of radiation from Japan in Southern california.Nothing to worry about.Have a nice weekend.
ReplyDeleteHope that river doesn't rise too much, it looks so close!!
ReplyDeleteHappy spring!

Lovely pictures of the river! I enjoy seeing the plant progress! Hope that you can get some good hooking time in! Spring can become a busy time of year.

the river that was flooding near my work opened also so hopefully no flooding. We still can not see any green grass at our house. I love seeing the progress on your seedlings. I was nice here the past two days but still alot of snow to go. Hope to see your rug soon.

It all looks so nice. When ever you show pictures of the St. John's river it just amazes me it is so close to your house. I like how your seed are growing too. I hope you have a really nice weekend too.
