Boo, 20 degree weather sucks, that's why I sent it all to live in Canada. Guess I'll have to take my belt off and put this weather crap back in line.

Anyone noticed that we are getting pollen already? A whole lot of plants are going to take it on the chin.

Or maybe not..... The latest forecast raised the low temps to 26 degrees. Maybe by mid week the forecast won't look quite so ugly.

Got some Oregon grape holleys blooming that I would really hate to see get damaged.
