You can see by the Twitter Feed, that we have been to Oaxaca and back. Now, we are preparing for Spring and taking what we've learned from previous years and applying it to this year's Garden. In the meantime, we have had 4 inches of rain this year and the drought the devastated last year's nopal cactus crop has been mitigated.
The early rains have refreshed the cactus and encouraged them to leaf out and bloom. Both of these are important, as they are both food crops as well as high plateau forest greenery. We have already had our first helping of fresh nopales, onions and tomatoes. We'll be harvesting more throughout the month, while awaiting the ripening of the "tunas," the prickly pears.

Time to Cozy in for the Night. There is the potential of some rain coming our way. And, if not, the Thunder and Lightning show that is beginning will provide a nice evening's entertainment.
