Go to sleep


 
Always nice to see the garden put to bed for a few months. Jesier unloaded three yards of compost by wheelbarrow, then spread it carefully around on his hands and knees. My new hero who does everything from window cleaning to pressure washing. Of course I gave him a nice tip so he comes back.

The product from Burien Bark looks and smells better than Cedar Grove, which is made with municipal slops and has a sour odor.  The plants should appreciate that generous layer in the spring and it keeps the weeds down in the winter.

Speaking of spring, today is the last evening until March when the sun sets before 6 pm. Yes, we're entering the dark time in the northwest.

And when the weather turns, this is where the smart money goes. Especially if you grew up with it, there's something so comforting about wood stove heat. Just ask Nica.
