I was at the garden center a little while ago looking at some plants and I remember your post. I held off getting any starter plants. Next weekend is soon enough.
Notoriously, what you folks get up in that area, tops out and starts southeast.... Right across my house.  |

Wow, Elkhunter, that's quite a list you're packing.
We've had wet heavy snow coming down since about 1:00 here in Havre. It is literally turning everything white.

In case your interested, I have all the sights for Montana, Wyoming, South Dakota, North Dakota, Nebraska etc.
Comes in kind of handy on City-Data when people say, "I'm traveling across I-80 this weekend, how can I check the weather?"
Let me know if you or anybody wants them I'll either post them or send them in a DM. Took me a year to compile the list. haha
