Below are eight ways we know the big thaw is finally here at Gael Glen Farm.
#1 Our backyard has turned into a muddy lake.

#2 We can dry Liam's diapers on the clothes line.
#3 Everything is crooked. For example, none of our gate latches line up...at all. Bungie cords to the rescue!
#4 Our tulips and daffodils have sprouted.
#5 We can see our box gardens again. They are no longer completely covered with snow.
#6 Our hens and ducks can play outside (in the mud, of course).
#7 Ian is putting the summer tires on the car.
#8 We are making maple syrup. We would like to extend a big "Thank You" to our neighbours across the street and a few doors down for letting us tap their maple trees. More details on this sweet endeavour in a future post.
