Spring Equinox!

Today is the equinox. Tom Lukens came over and helped John prune the fruit trees. They have sticks in them now to help them grow in the right direction. John also thinned out the raspberry patch. John was talking to Tom about the ants in the raspberries and he said they usually feed on aphids. And then, when John mentioned the peonies planted next to the raspberries, Tom said that the peonies were the culprit--responsible for the aphids and so the ants. We will need to move the peonies.
