Signs, Signs, Height of the Storm

Freezing rain, sleet and snow this week turned the streets of Selma into ice,

 and generators were in high demand in case power went out.

Thankfully, school was canceled the night before,

preventing a hurry-home-at-the-height-of-the-storm misfortune.

 As the thaw begins today, we'll hope that pipes didn't freeze!

Flowers, Seeds, Chicks

It seems everyone has the gardening bug this spring, and a cute display

 in front of Selma Hardware sure attracted my attention! I've been

 in garden centers recently where people who have never 

planted vegetables before are trying it this year.

 One older couple told a cashier that they hadn't planted a garden in years,

 but frankly, fresh veggies just cost so much at the store that it's time

 to once again plant their own in God's good earth! It appears that some

folks may also be raising their own chickens and eggs!

How about you?

Are you planting food in your yard or garden space this year?
