When the snow is not too deep to plow and the river don't rise, we usually have a good 3-4 months. A couple of years ago we had tons of rain in June…lost almost everything. By the time the gumbo (clay muck) dried out it was too late to plant again. This year I'm trying raised beds. I usually start as much as i can indoors and try to transplant or put seeds on the ground at the end of May.

Big Sky Country here, i.e. Billings, MT. waiting for the snow to melt and the Temps to rise. ECW gear is the order of business this week. Next week…who knows, but I have all my seeds ready to sew. Jeff, send some sunshine this way!!

Montana's watersheds are low and the snow pack in the mountains isn't where it should be. Another winter storm? Oh yeah, bring it on!! I always hated snow storms that left piles of white everywhere, at least until I was old enough to realize how important they were in the long run. My favorite fishing spots on the Yellowstone are very low…sand bars are turning into small islands. Islands are becoming part of the shore. Backwater areas are dry. I know the danger of floods increases with too much snow, but the danger of more drought is just as bad, if not worse. Flood waters recede, droughts just go on and on.
