It’s been a cold week or two here. The chilly weather has given us nighttime temperatures down around freezing. As April turned into May, snowflakes flew through the air, though none stayed on the ground. We awoke to a dusting of snow on our rooftops on Monday, May 2nd.

The crops are two weeks behind, according to Minnesota Public Radio this morning, and the plants in our garden have been growing in slow motion. Fortunately, they seem no worse for the near-freezing temperatures.

One of our tulips is finally about to open, and I hope that a warmer season will burst out with it.
