I went out to the garden to get some soil to start my tomatoes in. Apparently, my garden is still full of life, it's just dormant for the winter.

Although the garden was buried in 18" of snow, the soil wasn't frozen, and there are plenty of worms in there. I cut a few in half with the shovel, and they did not squirm at all. But when I brought the pot of soil inside, they buried themselves again. Looks good.

I got the cold frame built, so all I'm waiting on is for the seeds to germinate.

There's a nice, hot breeze and the sound of melting snow outside.

This is a nice time of year before everything turns to mud.
