For week of 13-19 Apr: (4.4+ 0.1+ 0+ 7.4+ 0+ 0+ 0)= 11.9mm, Near Normal. High's: +4C to +15C; Low's: +5C to +1C; Wind: Slight to Light, V to 26km/hr; Dew/Frost: 1 AM light dew. This past week, the deer have been regular visitors. The Doe's are stepping back, and the yearlings are coming on their own. After the Deer have grazed and their hoofs have softened the ground, the Robbins come to pull worms. I now hear a Woodpecker each morning, along with the song birds. Its wonderful. The grass is greening. Yesterday was a gorgeous day, high of +15C. Up til then, quite cool. Bulbs may be a little late in sprouting. On the people side, we are into Easter long weekend. And, Early Voting has begun, with long line-up's; Yay for fair weather. Peggy's Cove Rd was steady with traffic. Blue sky, sunshine and blue water are rather enticing. We'll take it.
