|I am looking for suggestions as what to plant along the foundation along the "back" of the house. I say "back" of the house but it's what you see when you drive into the driveway (see photos). On the left corner of the house is a Potentilla and right Bridal Wreath Spirea In between there is a two foot wide border with white bearded iris and blue forget-me-nots. I'm not thrilled with the iris although they do cover the foundation and the forget-me-not are nice but don't last long and look ratty after blooming. I could pull them out but needed to re-seed for the following year.
I am partial to perennials; shrubs are not an option as snow sliding off the roof would flatten them. I'm primarily interested in relatively "low maintenance" foliage plants. Peonies, hostas and daylillies have done well for us although since this side of the house faces SSW, hostas may not be an option even though there are several kinds which are said to do well in full sun.
I'm not limiting myself to these three plant types as there are many other foliage plants available. I'd appreciate any ideas you may have including the size and shape of the bed. I'd like the plantings to be somewhat subtle since I don't want to overwhelm the house or view.

|What a lovely home you have, with a view to die for! Your photos answered my unasked question of whether or not you are the same squirejohn (vice versa actually) who sells me hay. I guess not since his house is in town on the main drag.
If it were me I wouldn't change a thing. I think your foundation plantings are picture perfect just as they are.

|How ambitious are you? I like the current bed size with the house. However, I can also see some sort of parterre garden there. A very formal bed layout with almost entirely short (3 ft or less) plants. I'm not seeing a deeper version of the same bed there because it would want height at the back, which would detract from the house.
For plants, I'd stick with things that look good for most of the season. Nepeta, short ornamental grasses, Siberian iris, maybe rhubarb.
|I also don't like shrubs right in front of my house. In my case, it's a pruning thing. I have a 1/4 circle garden in front of the house - bordered by the house, driveway and front walk. To add height in the back, I have White Heliotrope - it gets 5-6" tall, blooms in mid summer, and has interesting foliage for the rest of the summer. All the foliage dies back in the Fall. I have the 2 Heliotropes - one on either side of the window.
In front of the Heliotrope, I have Lilies - in particular the Simplon Oriental Lily and the Eyeliner Asiatic Lily. They also add height - close to 5' for the Simplon, and about 4' for the Eyeliner - and they bloom later than the Heliotrope.
The other side of my front entry, I just have a border foundation garden - I have white peonies there. They "hide" the cement of the foundation. But don't add enough height to block the window.
|Both your house and your view are really lovely, and the two look nice together. One thing that strikes me is that it is difficult for a visitor to know quite how to approach your house. I don't have any ideas about how to make this clearer, but it might be something to consider - if as part of your planting plan you can add something to help guide folks to your door.
In general I like having deeper beds - mine along buildings range from about 5 feet deep to 8 or 9. I like having the depth to have more plants rather than just one line of plants so that there is more texture and contrast and if something isn't doing well, it isn't so obvious. I don't do deliberately curvy edges unless the plants require it (such as a big shrub in a bed that isn't deep enough.) As far as I can see, your house doesn't require a deeper bed (or really any bed since the view is what catches one's eye) since it sits low and has little of the foundation showing, but it may be easier to get a pleasing garden with a wider bed. You will probably need to leave a strip of mulch of some kind where the rain drips off the roof as most perennials won't grow right under the drip line. Shrubs in general do fine there.
If you want them, there are a few kinds of shrubs that are possible in the roof dump zone, as some do well cut to the ground annually. Under my roof edge where snow lands I have a couple kinds of hydrangea: Annabelle (or you could use any other kind of H. arborescens) and Endless Summer. Both bloom on new wood and have no problems with being cut to the ground in spring. They should be hardy for you. Whether they would do well for you depends on how dry it gets since they aren't tolerant of dryness. I also have a summer-blooming spirea which does fine being cut to the ground each year. It will grow well in your conditions and there are many varieties with different heights, foliage color and texture, and bloom color so you could find one that looks different from the one you have. Spirea are relatively subtle. In years when snow dump hasn't damaged the shrubs, both hydrangea and spirea do fine without the severe pruning.
Mad Gallica's suggestions of rhubarb, nepeta, and Siberian iris are good suggestions that will tolerate your conditions and provide you with a range of foliage sizes and colors. Some other plants that I grow and should do well in those conditions: sedums (tall or groundcover), perennial geraniums, fall blooming asters, some of the hardier varieties of Amsonia such as tabernaemontana, Baptisia (a large shrubby perennial tolerant to a wide range of conditions and decorative in both bloom and foliage), and Liatris. A non-flowering variety of lambs ear such as 'Silver Carpet' or 'Helene von Stein' will add low silvery folliage. (I wouldn't recommend the flowering kind since it will self-seed into the lawn and everywhere else and is quite a weed.) If you want some height, consider Clematis on an obelisk. Late-blooming clematis get cut to near the ground annually since they bloom on new wood. There are also varieties of clematis that do well rambling along the ground or over a shrub, and even some that have the growth habit of a perennial (1-3 feet and non-climbing) though they would probably need to be bought mail-order. You may be able to tuck some hosta partially under or behind one of your shrubs to give it a bit of shade during the worst of the afternoon sun if you want some, but even sun-tolerant hosta would have some difficulty with full afternoon sun in a SSW exposure in my experience. Consider adding some of the spring-flowering bulbs that aren't bothered at all by critters: alliums (various kinds from early to late spring and short to tall) and daffodils. We have such a short growing season that having those early flowers is quite welcome.
One other quick note: you don't need to leave all or even many of your forget-me-nots in order to get reseeding. I rip most of mine out each year as they finish blooming and find that enough seeds have dropped that I get more than I want the following spring without problems.

|Thanks for all the responses. I'm sorry about the 'wide' post. I need to try out the "test' forum for posting photos.
speedgres - no hay here; just a 4 acre weed field that only needs mowing a couple of time a year.
Mad-gallica - Thanks for the perspective re depth of bed and house. I've never tried Nepeta or ornamental grass but may try some and see how they perform.
pixie lou - I looked up heliotrope and see it's limited to warmer zones. I see you're in zone 5 so do you mean garden heliotrope or Valarian? We have some but hasn't performed well here; kinds spindly. Peonies are one of my favorites and have some extra white (Festiva maxima) ones, but don't know just how to "fit them in" as they grow pretty tall.
nhbabs - I know what you mean about "how to approach your house". There is a grass path that is barely visible in the photo and I've thought about pavers, slate, etc., but would rather keep it simple and unstructured (word?).
I like your suggestion about not needing any foundation plantings although I would like to hide the concrete. Maybe Sedum spectable would look okay; nice foliage and Fall interest. I will definitely put in some dafodils (why couldn't I think of that?) for spring color. We have a flowering variety of lambs ear that's been well behaved, too much so, it never seeds in and the patch doesn't expand. On the other hand laydys mantle seeds all over the lawn if I don't cut down the spent flowers. Geraniums have done so-so although bloody cranesbill do very well. I tried some two years ago along the right side of the foundation (still there) but have remained small. Amsonia and the hydrangeas look interesting and will look into those; probably for other areas.
Thanks again for all your suggestions. I think I'll keep the bed narrow and have lots of plant suggestions to experiment with. I'm not adverse to trying a small planting of a number of different kinds and weeding out the ones that don't do well or don't care for.. If it looks ratty for a while that's okay.
|I have regular edible rhubarb in one of my beds. It's a large-leaved plant that likes sun and has red stems and leaves with a slightly curly texture, especially the newer leaves. It's the plant to the left and right of the flowers below. In the spring I pull stems for eating, but it replaces them quickly. I usually cut off the flowers, but you could leave them to be ornamental.
- Posted by squirejohn 4 (My Page) on Tue, Mar 1, 11 at 16:50
|We also have edible rhubarb that gets pretty "leggy" in the veg. garden. I thought mad-gallica was refering to some sort of ornamental rhubarb.
- Posted by spedigrees z4VT (firstname.lastname@example.com) on Wed, Mar 2, 11 at 10:21
|I, too, have edible rhubarb in with my perennial flowers. Last summer was its first summer. It looked beautiful until the foliage started dying partway through the season. I think this is what it does naturally if the stems aren't cut, because my neighbor across the road put in some plants and his looked just like mine. Because all instructions warn not to cut any leaf stems the first year, only the flower stems, I let it alone to wither. However this year I plan to cut it back and make pies periodically. Perhaps that will keep it looking pretty all summer?? I've never grown rhubarb before so I can use some tips. Your arrangement with the lupine and other plants is very attractive, Babs.

|Oh and thank you, squirejohn for the news of the flower show in Essex Jct this upcoming weekend. I'm not sure if we can get away or not, but it would be great if we could, to get a preview of spring.
|So did any of you Vermonters end up visiting the flower show in Essex Junction and would care to share photos or impressions?
Spedigrees - Thanks, but the arrangement is serendipitous, not planned. The rhubarb and variegated dogwood were stashed there as a holding bed when we moved and didn't have any finished garden space, the lupine and foxglove are self-seeded, and the other plants were already there, just have spread to fill the space. But I like it so I haven't moved anything other than moving the rhubarb out a bit where it will get more sun as the woody plants started shading it. It currently gets full morning and early afternoon sun and bright shade for most of the afternoon due to trees to the W and SW of the bed.
I really don't have to do much with the rhubarb other than what I do for all my beds: compost and mulch. I cut some each spring for cooking and cut off the flowering stalk. If leaves yellow, they pull off easily. This bed has great soil with good organics and enough fine particles to hold water while still having good drainage, and that may be why it is so easy. (This is an old farm, so at one point there may have had a manure pile or an outhouse here since this is near where the door would have been of the old barn and just the right distance from the house for an outhouse, though often those were inside the back of the barn.) It also may be the variety of rhubarb, which I got as a division from a previous neighbor, so I don't know the name of, but it grows well and relatively low, and needs less sugar in cooking than other varieties since it isn't as tart. The stems have a lovely red color. My best advice for your rhubarb is give it a good dose of compost or well-rotted manure and mulch it so that moisture stays even.
- Posted by spedigrees z4VT (firstname.lastname@example.com) on Sun, Mar 6, 11 at 13:31
|Thanks NH Babs. Our property too is part of an old farm and the bed where I planted the rhubarb is also well composted as well as well drained and in full sun, so I suspect conditions are optimal for it. Of course the true test will be how well it comes back this summer.
No, we just had too much to do here this weekend (poor excuse) to drive 3 hours or more to Essex Jct. We should have gone. I suspect a dose of blooms in this unending miserable winter would have done us a world of good. At least the rain today is melting the snow at a pretty good rate, but I expect it will freeze into treacherous ice tomorrow when the temps fall again.
|The heliotrope I have is valeriana officinalis. I've tried looking through my garden photos to find a photo of it, but can't. I started taking weekly photos of my gardens in September - which is way past it's prime. This will be my 3rd year of having the plants.

|My wife has a miserable cold so we wound up not going to the flower show.
After loosing about 4" of snow yesterday the rain turned to snow and so far we've had 14" and it's still snowing.

Just a guess, but some things about the special session that ended last week might come up, too.
OLYMPIA — Over objections that the Legislature was unconstitutionally reaching into the past to collect taxes, the House passed a change to the estate tax law that attempts to erase a loss in court.
House Bill 2064 passed on a 51-40 vote after Democrats described it as a technical fix to close a loophole the Supreme Court opened in tax law, and necessary to pay for schools. The estate tax is deposited in the school trust fund.
Rep. Timm Ormsby, D-Spokane, said the Legislature has reached a consensus that it must do a better job of paying for education, and closing the loophole in the estate tax law is one component of that.
"The clock is ticking and we have some responsibilities to fill." he said. The tax affects the state's wealthiest families — it applies only to estates with assets over $2 million — so the choice is between giving them a refund from estate taxes they've paid or keeping the money in the school trust fund, he added.
Republicans argued that rewriting the law to fix the problem the Supreme Court found, and applying it retroactively, was unconstitutional. The state was collecting taxes it shouldn't have, and now needs to give them back, Rep. Terry Nealey of Walla Walla said. If the state loses another court battle, it will have to pay the back taxes, plus interest and attorneys fees.
The issue involves a type of trust that some married couples use known as a qualified terminal interest property or QTIP, which keeps the assets from being taxed when the first spouse dies, deferring the estate tax until the second spouse dies. The Legislature passed the current estate tax law in 2005, and voters approved it through a referendum. But last year the state Supreme Court said the Department of Revenue was incorrectly collecting taxes from trusts in which the first spouse died before the law passed and the second spouse died after it took effect.
The state Department of Revenue will begin preparing refund checks next Monday for 70 estates that are effected by the court ruling, and expects to mail those checks, totalling more than $40 million, the following week, Mike Gowrylow, a department spokesman, said. Without the legislative changes, the state's Education Trust Fund would lose about $140 million over the 2013-15 biennium, between the refunds and taxes that it wouldn't be able to collect, the Office of Financial Management estimates.
Ormsby said it's a simple choice between writing refund checks to some of the state's wealthiest families or supporting schools. Rep. Reuven Carlyle, D-Seattle, said the bill was just a "technical fix" of the law and the Legislature always intended the estate tax to be applied in this manner.
But Rep. Matt Manweller, R-Ellensburg, said making the law retroactive runs afoul of the U.S. Constitution, and suggests "all sins are forgiven if it's done in the name of education."
Rep. Ed Orcutt, R-Kalama, said the bill won't just hit the wealthy, but estates that are high in property assets but with little liquid capital: "What are we going to do retroactively next?" he asked.
Spokane-area residents will have chances to ask their legislators what's going on in Olympia this weekend at several town hall meetings scheduled for Saturday.
Sen. Andy Billig, Reps. Timm Ormsby and Marcus Riccelli, all Democrats from central Spokane's 3rd District, have a 10 a.m. meeting at Shadle Park High School Auditorium, 4327 N. Ash, and a 2 p.m. meeting at Emmanuel Family Life Center, 631 S. Richard Allen Ct.
Sen. Mike Baumgartner, Reps. Kevin Parker and Jeff Holy, Republicans from northwest and south Spokane's 6th District, have a 10 a.m. meeting at Lincoln Heights Elementary School, 3322 E. 22nd Ave.

Residents of Spokane's 3rd Legislative District might be getting a call around 6 p.m. Wednesday inviting them to participate in a tele-town hall.
A what? you might say.
It's like a town hall meeting, only on the telephone.
Sen. Lisa Brown and Reps. Timm Ormsby and Andy Billig will all be on the other end. Or more accurately, another ends. In a tele-town hall, there are lots of ends because hundreds of people can be on the line.
Participants can ask their questions, and listen to the questions of others and the answers from the three Democratic legislators. If you want to participate but don't get a call, you can dial toll-free at 1-877-229-8493. You'll have to enter an ID code when requested, of 18646.
A spokeswoman said the three legislators decided to do a town hall meeting by phone because scheduling a session in Spokane early the session can be difficult. They may do one in person later.
For 6th District residents, however, can ask their state senator questions the old fashioned, face-to-face way on Saturday. Sen. Mike Baumgartner is holding two standard town hall meetings.
The first will be at 8 a.m. at the Multipurpose Room, PUB 101, on EWU Cheney campus. (It's hosted by the Associated Students of Eastern Washington University, who apparently don't plan to party late into the night Friday to be up bright and early for the town hall meeting…or maybe they just won't go to bed until after the meeting is over.)
Another meeitng is at 10:30 a.m. at the Northwest Museum of Arts and Culture in Browne's Addition, 2316 West 1st Ave.
OLYMPIA – A coalition of House Democrats and education advocates are asking the courts to void the supermajority required for tax increases, arguing that it's an unconstitutional limit on legislative authority.
State Republicans and the sponsor of initiatives that have repeatedly resulted in voters imposing that two-thirds majority quickly denounced the lawsuit as ignoring the will of the voters.
Tim Eyman, who had another such initiative certified Monday for this November's ballot, said the suit could boost that measure. It could also provide campaign fodder for Republican gubernatorial candidate Rob McKenna, who as state attorney general will have the task of defending the supermajority requirement in the courts.
"This is going to bode well for us," Eyman said of Initiative 1125. "It's an extraordinary gift they've given to the McKenna campaign."

OLYMPIA – After tying the Legislature in knots for much of the last three months, changes to the state's century-old workers compensation sped through both houses Monday with comfortable margins. It passed the House 69-26, and the Senate 35-12.
The changes, which also have the support of Gov. Chris Gregoire and should soon become law, are projected to save the disability system some $1.1 billion over the next four years and stave off double digit rate increases for businesses.

There's a break in the legislative action this weekend, so several Spokane-area legislators will be back in their home districts to hold town hall meetings.
The break is a result of the Legislature passing a major deadline for voting bills out of one chamber, and not yet reaching a key point in crafting the next biennium's budget, the state economic forecast which comes out March 17. Because of that, neither house is in session this weekend, so it's a good time for legislators to head home for a few days, and Saturday seems like a good day for town hall meetings.
Here's a list of what's scheduled for Saturday.
3rd Legislative District
Sen. Lisa Brown, Reps. Timm Ormsby and Andy Billig.
10 a.m., Northeast Community Center, 4001 N. Cook St.
2 p.m., Northwest Museum of Arts and Culture, 2316 W. 1st Ave.
6th Legislative District
Sen. Mike Baumgartner, Reps. Kevin Parker and John Ahern
10:30 a.m. Northwood Middle School gymnasium, 13120 N. Pittsburg St.
2 p.m., Education themed town hall at Northwood Middle School library, 13120 N. Pittsburg St.
5 p.m. town hall at the MAC, 2316 W. 1st Ave.
9th Legislative District
Rep. Susan Fagan
10:30 a.m., WHMC Public Education Building, 1200 W. Fairview St., Colfax
2 p.m., Cafe Moro, 100 E. Main St., Pullman
OLYMPIA — News that the FBI was making an arrest in the MLK Day bomb plot came as a surprise here yesterday — not just to legislators who have been ensconced in the capital for two months but to Spokane County's top law official.
Spokane County Prosecutor Steve Tucker was in Olympia for "Law and Justice Day", a day set aside for the state's prosecuting attorneys to lobby their legislators. He was enroute from one Spokane-area senator's office to another's Wednesday morning about the time FBI agents (and some media) were closing in on Kevin Harpham's home near Addy.
Bumping into Tucker on the sidewalk, I decided to see if I could pick up a tidbit of news to feed back to Spokane. So, I asked, the FBI is picking up someone in MLK parade bomb attempt?
They are? he replied, surprised. When told that was the word coming out of Spokane, he seemed pleased, but still surprised, and asked if I had any more details. The FBI, he said, always keeps things close to the vest.
A short time later, I happened upon Rep. Timm Ormsby, a Spokane Democrat who's district includes the downtown route of the parade, and mentioned the feds were making an arrest, again hoping for some little nugget of news. His brother, Mike Ormsby, is, after all, the U.S. attorney in Spokane.
Rep. Ormsby was surprised, too, and asked who and where. US Atty. Ormsby doesn't talk about the cases, he said.
OLYMPIA — The end of the session — or what was scheduled to be the end — is a time when various "legislator of the year" awards are announced. But one that seems to have some currency in the halls of the Capitol went to Rep. Timm Ormsby.
Ormsby of Spokane was named to that honor by the House Democratic staff, making him the first Spokane area legislator to get the award.
It's such a big deal that his name goes on a placque in the Democratic caucus room. But it is a big deal among staff, one source said.
The deal is that only the Democratic legislative aides get a vote. And they can't vote for their own boss (otherwise we'd be looking at something like a 61-way tie.)
Staffers aren't even supposed to lobby for their own boss, the source said. Ormsby won this year because he's recognized as someone who generally cares about his staff, doesn't waste people's time, and takes on the hard fights.
The source spoke on condition of not being identified. But no, it's not one of Ormsby's staff. (Stop being so cynical.)
OLYMPIA – A proposal to raise the state sales tax by 1 cent on the dollar, and tie it to high levels of unemployment, was introduced Thursday in the state House of Representatives.
Rep. Timm Ormsby, D-Spokane and one of the House Bill 3183's 15 co-sponsors, calls it "an interesting concept", even while conceding the sales tax is "a terrible revenue source."
"I'm not crazy about the sales tax. But it's one of the very few options available to the state," he said.
The bill would raise the state's share of the sales tax by 1 percent starting June 30, with 80 percent going to the state's general fund, and most of the rest being set aside for roads and bridges. It would keep that extra penny per dollar in place until the state's unemployment rate dropped to 6.5 percent for four straight months. The other half-cent would come off after the unemployment rate dropped to 5 percent.
Minutes after the bill was introduced, the Washington Policy Center, a conservative organization, was warning the sales tax could be in place for a long time. The state's current unemployment rate is 9.5 percent and a tax increase of this magnitude could cost the state thousands more jobs, said Jason Mercier of the policy center.
Ormsby said the bill was introduced in the hope of getting a hearing in the House Ways and Means Committee and generating discussion: "I'll be interested to see what kind of reaction is out there."
There is no similar proposal in the Senate. Gov. Chris Gregoire has said she'd consider any options the Legislature sent her, but has not called for a sales tax increase.

When Greta Attacks: 'WaPo Editorial Board Attends Too Many Inside D.C. Cocktail Parties'
Hell hath no fury like a Greta Van Susteren scorned.
In a recent editorial, WaPo admitted they dropped the ball on the Benghazi murders story. They did it in a roundabout way because admitting failure is simply not how the WaPo rolls.
In their editorial, editors felt the need to take a swipe at Fox News, the only outlet that didn't involve regurgitating White House talking points. The Post rights, "Fox's aggressive reporting, though undercut by blustery and often scurrilous commentary, nevertheless seems to have prompted the CIA and Pentagon to provide reporters with their accounts of Sept. 11…" (emphasis added by Greta.)

'Nashville' Gets a Full Season
The hit ABC drama "Nashville" has been picked up for a full season of country music fun!
The hit ABC drama "Nashville" has been picked up for a full season of country music fun!
If you can't get enough of the country music drama on ABC's 'Nashville,' then you'll be excited to learn that the Music City mansion inhabited by Rayna James (Connie Britton's character) is up for sale. Unfortunately, it comes with a hefty price tag that only a successful country music star could afford.
See the real life locations, including private homes, that are used in ABC's TV show "Nashville"!
The music for ABC's " Nashville" is awesome! Check out some of the cool tunes, and where to get them!
Country songs were once again a supporting character in the plot of this week's second episode of 'Nashville' on ABC. During 'I Can't Help It,' fans watch as many of the lead characters struggle with feelings they shouldn't be feeling. The Deacon and Rayna romance seemed ripe from the start of the pilot episode, but another character let a song pull her heart away from a man.
'Nashville' star Hayden Panettiere has already dismissed rumors that her contentious character on the new ABC series is based on Taylor Swift, but the actress-turned-small-screen-singer has admitted that fellow blonde beauty Carrie Underwood served as muse for the fictional Juliette Barnes character. Well, at least one aspect of her.
It looks like there's a little bit more authenticity coming to ABC's 'Nashville.' Former 'According to Jim' star Kimberly Williams-Paisley has joined the show in a role that will recur over a multi-episode arc. The performer not only lives in Nashville, but knows the ropes, as she is also married to country star Brad Paisley.
A new television drama called "Nashville" is set to start filming in Music City USA. The show will star Hayden Panettiere and Connie Britton, and lots of country music!
As I mentioned on the show this morning, last week me and the family made a trip to Nashville. As a huge country music fan, I am in heaven every time I go.

network support engineer
A network support engineer focuses on the maintenance of an existing corporate network, either as part of the organization's internal IT support team or as technical support staff of a third-party network technology provider. Network support may extend from testing and troubleshooting problems to regular maintenance. Support engineers contribute high-level support such as strategic planning of network upgrades and high-level network performance analyses.
A computer engineering or computer science degree at the bachelor's level can get you started in a network engineer career. To keep pace with network technology and advance in your career, supplement this educational foundation with a master's degree in computer engineering or computer training certifications. Network support engineers face strong demand for their expertise; according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, network analysts can expect 53 percent growth in the 2008 to 2018 period, making it the second-fastest-growing career in the U.S.

Kass: The Decade of the Temporary Worker
This blog post originally appeared on RealMoney Silver on Aug. 2 at 8:15 a.m. EDT.
U.S. corporations have a renewed emphasis on temporary hirings at the expense of permanent job placements.
Years ago, inventory on-demand solutions arose at manufacturing companies around the world, resulting in improved returns on industrial invested capital and corporate profitability both in the U.S. and abroad.
Not surprisingly, today, the trend of a broader use of temporary workers is the next generation of return optimization in an age of broad uncertainty and a wider-than-usual set of economic outcomes.Prior to the 2008-2009 Great Decession, temporary employment growth has signaled permanent hiring strength. The chart below plots the year-over-year percentage change in temporary jobs in the U.S. against the overall rate of change in overall nonfarm employment.

Early Thoughts On The NCAA D1 Lacrosse Season
The D1 NCAA Lacrosse season is well underway, and every single D1 program has played at least one game. Some teams have played as many as four games already, and we've got a couple of undefeated squads looking strong early. It's time to run through the D1 scene and see where things stand.
Alphabetical 2014 NCAA D1 Preview: Monmouth
The NCAA D1 season is now underway! During the first couple of weeks of lacrosse season we'll be finishing up the Alphabetical 2014 NCAA D1 Previews! Like last year, we are going through all of the D1 men's teams for 2014 (there are 67 this year!) and we are now moving on to the Monmouth […]

|After our lovely week in the high 60's and 70's old man winter is letting us know he's not done with us yet! Calling for 6-12" here at my house (depending on which weatherman you ask).One of the few things I don't like about Colorado: our lack an honest-to-goodness real life spring.
Follow-Up Postings:
|I am! It's so dry. I've enjoyed having a spring this year, but we really need a 2 ft. dumping of snow. We're not going to get that, but the precip. is welcome.
Things are slow to wake up around here, so not anticipating any tree damage, I think those with flowering trees in bloom might take a hit.
Today would be a good day to lay down some lawn fertilizer. I just finished mine!
|It's been sort of dry here so some snow would be fine. I started watering some areas yesterday with a hose due to lack of soil moisture. Still too early to turn on the irrigation system. No lawn fertilizer needed here but I might frost seed some clover where the last of the lawn was.
Probably not going to get cold enough, ~21F, to damage tree blossoms. I have appreciated not needing to close my coldframes and tunnels recently. Weather.com is saying 4-6 inches of snow for denver metro.
Zach, this IS Spring!

|We put down lawn fertilizer too. But I am a little worried about my early season veggies already in the raised beds, we'll see!
|Yeah, I'm mostly worried about the early veggies that are in the beds too. My onions just started putting on some decent growth this week, but I don't think the snow is going to really kill off anything (most of the little bit that's out there I can easily restart if worse comes to worse) Really just worried about everything getting squished to death under a foot of wet heavy slush.
Gjcore, I think what you meant to say was: this is "spring." I have been to other places, spring, as it is understood by the rest of the world, is not something that exists in Colorado haha.
|luckybottom, I'm probably just going to do the bigger sale this year and not my own. The big sale is May 10th and 11th in Englewood.
The rosemary is coming along pretty good so far though my experiment of putting relatively new cuttings in the coldframes over the winter didn't work out all that well. The mature ones came through just fine protected outside. About 75 rosemary are looking pretty good.

|It is snowing here tonight also. Hopefully not enough to have to shovel tomorrow. It could just melt off. I have walking onions, chives, garlic and rhubarb up and they can handle it. In the hoop house I have lettuce, greens and spinach and they should do okay. I bet I pulled 3 thousand little chickweeds in half a bed of greens today. Maybe I will just have to acquire a taste for it.

|Bring it on! We need the moisture. Just no vicious cold like last spring that robbed us of so many spring flowers and flowering trees and shrubs.
|I was in Salina, KS for pretty much all of April last year. This shows the nice layer of ice that covered every square inch of everything out there. It was crazy! I had to pour my hot coffee on the door handle of my truck to unlock and open it haha.
I broke a chunk off to show the difference. I wish I had taken pictures of the grass (each individual blade had it's own coating) and the flowering fruit tress where all the flowers looked like they had been dipped in clear resin.
|I'm ready. I moved all of my potted spring swap babies under tables to keep them from getting squished. I put pots over a couple of my plants in the garden that are just looking too good to risk and I got out all my little rain buckets. (I don't have a big rain barrel) The buds on my lilacs and little pear tree are still closed up tight. They should be be ok, so bring it on!
|The snow won't bother the garlic, onions, and other alliums.
We're in for 100% chance of rain, they say. I'm skeptical…
|I'm ready now! When I got up it was already 32 here and was switching over from light rain to light snow. Yesterday, in anticipation of snow, I leaned some of my cuke trellises over the dafs and hyacinths that are blooming. Not worried about the cold, but they get smashed by snow, so I went out and clipped sheets over the trellises this morning to keep the snow from knocking them all down. I cut 5 dafs that were here and there by themselves yesterday, and cut one more that was all by itself today--that was starting to seriously list! They're pretty inside too! All the ones that are in "bunches" are now sheltered from snow.
And, wouldn't you know it, pretty much as soon as I got back inside and was trying to warm up my fingers and feet, the snow stopped again!!! They're still predicting 5-9" for my area, and I really, really don't think I'm gonna get anything like that, but I do think I'll get more than I have so far. It's been kind of drizzling "slightly solid" rain since I finished with the Cover Job.
My bleeding heart is about 18" high and starting to bloom, so I put a big pot over that one yesterday. Old fashioned bleeding hearts are one of the things that WILL freeze, and they're too pretty to chance missing a "whole year" of flowers!
Everything else is short enough or cold hardy enough to be ok on its own. Do already have hosta and ferns starting to appear thru the mulch, but they're still small/tight enough to survive what we're gonna get this time.
Like others around here, I'm pretty dry again, and I'm hopin' for a decent amount of precip!
Love Springtime in the Rockies,
|Yeah, it was sleeting this morning when I woke up around 7, and been ever since. Seems to be tapering off...perhaps they oversold this one, or it's just taking a break.
Covered up the veggies that are outside, the garden looks like tent city lol. I'm not too worried about the cold, but, like your bulbs, Skybird, I'm mostly concerned about the weight of the snow piling up on them.
|If you have anything you can "tent" over blooming bulbs, just enough to keep the weight of any snow off of them, I recommend it, Zach. Dafs, especially, have semi-hollow stems, so they don't really bend, they break! If they do break (bend in half!) you can still cut them and put them in water--if they're "frozen," thaw them in a cold room/place first! But if they break too high up on the stem it's pretty hard to even do that.
I'm getting snow, kinda corn-snow, right now, but it's still very fine. Checked radar again and it looks like something heavier could be moving toward me from the southwest part of town, but overall it still looks to me like it might wind up being mostly a bust! I'm saying that to Tempt Fate! Still hoping for something significant!
|In Brighton, it has been raining or snowing lightly all day. No accumulation yet but the ground is getting a little soaking. I'm hoping it's about to pick up any minute.
|looks like your tempting fate worked, lol. Here in Littleton I've got a good 3/4" now, and, if it lasts until tomorrow morning like they've been saying, I bet we see the whole 6".
I don't have any bulbs, since they always sell them in the spring and by the time I'm ready to plant bulbs in the fall they are gone! We don't actually have any landscaping to begin with though, was going to try some this year but apparently flower seeds don't care for me much.

|It's starting to come down a bit here on the prairie. Took the dog for a quick walk. Grauple, driven by wind, smacking against your face, stings pretty good. I had started hardening my onions off, but they'll just sit in the window today. The moisture reading on CoCoRaHs should be interesting tomorrow. There isn't a lot falling, but it is full of moisture.
|In the last 10 minutes it's started REALLY coming down here! Almost looks like winter out there--but we all know better! The grass is still sticking out of the snow, but at this rate it'll be completely covered in another 5-10 minutes. Fingers crossed! Really glad I got the sheets over the bulbs to keep the snow off of them!
|We had rain, but nothing measurable, and now its cleared off and sunny.
- Posted by margaretmontana 4-5MT (My Page) on Sun, Apr 13, 14 at 23:01
|Our snow melted by 11 a.m. and I did not have to shovel. The wind was gusting really hard and I thought some of the things in the yard were going to travel quite a ways. Today cool and clear. I finished potting up the rest of my tomatoes into coffee and yogurt cups.
|Well, that's it yall, I'm moving. 8 months of sh***y weather and slipping and sliding on the roads and scraping off windshields is just too much for me. I spent a year and a half in the middle east, and I'll tell you, moisture be damned, I much prefer the heat haha.
|I have maybe 3 inches of snow on the grass this morning, but the roads have about 1/2 an inch. Not as much as I hoped for, but I'll take it!
|21ÂşF this morning. No peaches, no plums, and no Jonathan apples this year.
- Posted by jaliranchr z5 EC CO (My Page) on Mon, Apr 14, 14 at 13:02
|So sorry about the fruit blossoms, David.
Here's the CoCoRaHS moisture measurements (Just click on the state and county you are interested in). We got a decent .29" of moisture out of the snow.
Here is a link that might be useful: CoCoRaHS moisture reports
|That does suck, David. You'd think the trees around here would learn to wait (course, our apple trees wait for years and only flower like once every 3-4 years.)
|Not much moisture and frozen blossoms! Sorry to hear that, David!
Was wondering if you got much out your way, Jali! Glad it was at least measurable!
I've saved links to CoCoRaHS before, but I've always had trouble finding real specific info because you can't "zoom in" on the map I had found and there weren't enough roads marked for me to be sure which "station" was closest to me--and on the list of "stations" there's no real info about exactly where they are! This time, however, I clicked on enough links that I got to THIS map, where you can zoom in all the way and then click on the individual stations to get detailed info. I love it! I'm not sure if it'll link to the Colorado map like I have it set now, or if it'll go to the US map, but it covers the whole US and Canada and you can go to whatever state you want to get precip totals. This is the one I'll be using from now on!
It looks like I got about the same as you, Jali, about .29", but just west of me there are reports of up to .55". I think maybe I was somewhere between those two--based on nothing scientific whatsoever, but just on how long it was raining/snowing, even if it was slow most of the time. I estimate close to 2" of "visible" snow on the grass, but it's really hard to know how much it was because it was melting so much in the beginning, and then started to actually rain again after the first snow!
I got a self-emptying wireless remote rain gauge last fall, and I am (not very) patiently waiting to put it out in the yard! It says to not use it in freezing weather! A few more weeks and I'll know for sure what I get here--and won't need to run out into the yard in the rain to see how much I've gotten! Sure wish I had had it during The Floods last fall! Still hoping to get a real weather station some day!
The yard is looking green and happy--which makes me happy too!
Here is a link that might be useful: Interactive CoCoRaHS Precip Map
|Were sittin at between .47 and .49. Looks like I only lost a beet or two that were at the edge of the bed and got frost bit. Everything else is as perky as it was before, but holy cow is it a muddy, trashy mess out there. straw, wood and blankets everywhere. Gearin up for round two later this week!
|During the storm the other there was and I am assuming a female robin digging in the mulch frantically for a few hours looking for worms. This is the best picture I could get through the back security door. If you look closely you can see her pretty much center in the hole she dug.

|Great pic of an industrious lady, gjcore!
Glad so many received some moisture. I went out with the hoe and tackled some young weeds while the soil was more forgiving with the moisture.

A teen who authorities think taught himself how to fly may be responsible for the theft of a pricey private plane from the Boundary County Airport this week.
A logger found the 2005 Cessna 182 turbo plane (left) crashed in a clearing near Granite Falls Thursday afternoon. The FBI, DEA, and Homeland Security are scouring the area looking for the pilot who apparently walked away from the crash, which a Snohomish County Sheriff's Office spokeswoman described as "survivable."
Authorities say the plane heist resembles two aircraft thefts in Western Washington that have been connected to Colton Harris-Moore, an 18-year-old serial burglar who escaped from a juvenile facility in April 2008.
The picture to the right was taken by him with a stolen digital camera, according to the Island County Sheriff's Office.
"We still don't know it's that guy, but everything's pointing to it," said plane owner Patrick Gardiner.
Read the rest of my story here.

Some of Kristie's extras
I typically wait until all of the extras for a wedding are finished. But Kristie has so many that I thought I'd post the first round that she picked up today. Pictured here are here multi-colored favor tags. Be sure to look at her page for her unity candle, programs, bar menu, and bathroom basket sign!

Watch out Detroit, Chicago is taking over!
Nearly 20-25% of my orders next year are coming from out of state... and the majority of those are in Chicago! Chicago brides have the best ideas and I've had a blast working with all of them so far. Erica was no exception. My first to use the Chicago skyline, I'm a little nervous what I'm going to do for the next request because I don't repeat designs. ;) To see my first Portrait invitation with reveal, click here.

Whew, this week is finally over
I knew going into the last two weeks that it was going to be my busiest time this year. I hadn't anticipated the little amount of sleep that I would get though :-\ With 8 pickups and 2 shipments this week, not to mention three consults, I deserved my last two nights - over 8 hours of sleep. :) YAY me. Elisabeth's seating chart, matching table numbers, programs, and even little non-smoking signs are beautiful together. To see her whole set, click here.

My candles
When most brides walk in for a consult, they don't realize that my candles actually glow when they are lit. The entire thing lights up all of the way to the bottom of the candle. Jaimee and Dan had seen a candle burning when they picked up their invites and wanted one, but they didn't want me to cover up the candle. Oh, but they forgot to tell me that. ;) So when I sent a proof for the band, Jaimee fell in love with it. All of Jaimee's pieces together are one of my favorite sets. Her postcards with custom stamp were such a hit, she had nearly a dozen people that xeroxed it or called instead of mailing it in because they refused to return it. :) To see her whole set, click here.

I love Colette. I had never met her over the last 7 months, only emailed and talked on the phone. Colette has had the WORST experience with one of her vendors, making my job to finish her extras on time extremely difficult. But the two of us pulled together and with the help of Greg, we were able to finish everything just a few days before the wedding. And I finally got to meet Colette the day before her wedding!

A NEW table number and menu
Lauren pushed me creatively for the last 7 months. I first started talking to her back in February when I was on vacation. I immediately fell in love with her, and even though I was booked, I just had to do her wedding. I am so glad I did, because her set is one of my favorites for the year. She encouraged me to do something new with the table numbers and menus and this was my solution - a card, not a tent - and the menu is displayed inside. All of her pieces are amazing together! Be sure to click here to see her signs, table numbers, seating chart, and candles.

Lauren's vintage chart
I am a huge fan of vintage and when Lauren asked me to do her seating chart, I was so excited. The ornament was meant to be used as a corner ornament, but I blew it up to fill the background. Their monogram filled the top 1/3 of the chart.

Custom at it's fullest
Custom invitation should be just that - custom. Maureen had my most custom request ever - to put the detailing of her wedding dress on her invitations. With some edits and changes, the design came fast. Maureen is in California, so her mother picked them up yesterday. As she opened it with tears in her eyes, I actually got the shivers because I'm more proud of this invitation than probably any I've done. To see how the design got started and to see my first 4x9 pocketfold AND first red envelopes, click here.
