April 25th: Uncovering strawberry, windy and very cold.

April 26th: Unloading peppers, etc., not quite so cold but cold at night, freezing, ice every night.

April 27th: Finished uncovering strawberries, the new beds look green but now very light. Old beds look bad. Started transplanting tomatoes.

April 28th: Planted cucumbers, 5 sacks, also planting some tomatoes in lines 4½ & 5½ in. Think 5½ in. are small enough for some slow work. Also planted 1st strawberries. 12 Rows next. Jerry's shack, 12 bloom plants from Baldwin.

April 29th: Sunday, windy but a lot warmer. Went for a drive out to Carlisle, took a few snaps by a creek there.

April 30th: Cold & showery all day, planted a few more strawberries.

May 1st: Fair but cool, planning strawberries.

May 2nd: Started planting four celery beds; fine & warm, about 68°.
