Spring is coming

So March is here and with that so will be spring. I know personally I
have had enough snow and the accompanying cold weather. In Pennsylvania
where I live we had a stretch of nearly three weeks were the temperature
stayed in the teens and twenties - for a high.

Spring is my second favorite season with summer being first. The first
thing I start to notice is the vegetation turning green. Plants start
flourishing and getting buds that will soon bloom.

The new season also starts the vegetable growing season. I know I will
be going over the rototiller in the upcoming weeks to get it ready for
the garden. Usually I start planting the third or last week of may. This
season I am seriously thinking of starting with seeds. If I start with
seeds I will sow them in early to mid April in order to transplant them in
late May.

Fishing in Pennsylvania Trout Opener

It's now also time to get the fishing gear ready for the new fishing season.
I just got my fishing license with the trout/salmon stamp. I hope to catch some
trout this year. Last year I caught no trout. I did catch a good share of bass
and panfish which were great eating. I also want to get the boats out more this
season. I only had the boats out twice last season and hope to increase that by
a good three times.
