Good Evening,

   Yesterday I drove from where there was still snow with my snow drops 
just poking through.  At my neighbor's house about 600 feet lower theirs 
were blooming.  At about 600 feet below that the daffodils were just 
opening.  Another 600 feet and I was in downtown Buxton where the 
daffodils were everywhere and tulips were starting.  By the way, the top 
of the mountain is about 400 feet above me and the snow is continuous on 
the north side facing me.

   I took a walk on my land enjoying the period where it's warming up 
but there are still no biting flies.  Soon the fern will be six feet 
tall or more but now the forest is very open.  I could not find the SW 
corner post.  I know I was close but I think a tree grew around it.  The 
pileated woodpeckers were making noise but you can hear them for miles.  
Especially when they are taking a tree apart.  I did hear a few 
unfamiliar calls; probably passing through on their way north.

    The solar flux is higher than I have seen it in over a year. 
Hopefully that means better propagation instead just more noise. We 
shall see.


Please join us tomorrow on:

14050 kHz at 2200z Sunday (3 PM PDT Sunday)
  7047 kHz at 0000z Monday (5 PM PDT Sunday)

73,
Kevin. KD5ONS
