> our first blooms in waning winter waxing spring are

And ours are in late April, with the exception of some willows and trees
which bloom earlier, but may be inaccessible to the bees due to cold and

We sometimes have frost in late June and have been known to have snow
every month of the year.
Ten months of winter and two months of poor skiing.
