Spring in Wisconsin

Fooled ya, didn’t I? Fooled us as well to wake up to this in the middle of April.

Marc’s surgery last week went well and the mass tested benign. It was a very large growth; he’ll have around five inches of scar gracing his lower back but he’s just happy to have it out. He returned to work today even though sitting upright in a chair is still painful. 

He did get the property corners all marked and staked this weekend on our lots but I neglected to take photos. We decided on a 50 foot by 30 foot spot for the garden where the old farmhouse used to stand. That makes it convenient to the water outlet. Next will come lots of post-hole digging once his back will allow the movement, as we have to put up a tall deer fence before anything is planted. Of course, with weather like this, gardening is just a happy dream for now.
