Can summer be far away?

Now that our sugaring season is coming to a close, can summer be far away? I've started gathering seeds for our garbage garden. I have grapefruit seeds from my father-in-law's tree, butternut squash from Easter dinner, corn from last year's crop, pumpkin from our Halloween jack-o-lantern fest, and some gourd seeds I collected on a walk with a friend. The compost bin is full of goodness, waiting to be returned to the earth. I've already placed a pineapple top outside... I hope it doesn't get too cold.
