President’s Day is the day set aside to honor George Washington’s birthday. His birthday is February 22nd, but it was voted to move the official holiday to the 3rd Monday in February to create a 3-day weekend. It is better known as President’s Day thanks to retailer sales.

This is a good day to talk about George Washington and our past presidents.

The winds have also been pretty rough and have caused a bit of damage.

If you are looking for links to the garden products… go to the bottom of the post!

Then the groundhog said that there’ll be six more weeks of winter??? Well, we took care of that groundhog… just kidding, but we did have a good meal to celebrate Groundhog Day.
