There are several mole hills in the garden area already. I tried a couple of times to find the holes by digging with the shovel but was not very successful. I managed to call Echo (Dad’s dog) to one of the mounds and told him to find the mole. In no time he was nose deep in the tunnel system. I pulled him away and set up a trap then moved on to the next mound.
So far two traps tripped out of three and no moles. Last year late in the season I was three for three.
The pepper seedlings are up now in full force. They just about all germinated which was very impressive. I had planted two seeds in two of the trays since I didn’t know how successful I’d be at germinating the plants (especially when I planted them it was still -30 C outside). Next time I’ll try one seed per tray cell.
This weekend finally seemed to bring some spring like weather. The big garden show was also on this weekend just in time for the nice weather.
Dad and I tried to go and pick up “the summer home”, which is an old 1972 or something Ford camper van. We got this to provide a little place to retreat into during the summer. Unfortunately the van was still frozen into the ground and we were getting stuck with our own truck. The good part was the van was sitting at a sheep farm. Below are a couple of photos (maybe looking into the future…)
