Wow! I cannot imagine having frosts during the summer!! -only 90 days of growing - that would be tough! Don't get me wrong, I loathe the excessive heat here from mid-June through September. Having such a short summer, though, would seem strange. I suppose it is all a matter of perspective...

-chickens finally came outdoors when it reached about 23 degrees. I envy all of you...
Yep. We were 80 yesterday. It is sleeting like crazy and 28 right now. -thinkin' I should've covered the emerging perennials, now. My salvia, daylilies, and society garlic were all coming up nicely. At least I got to the tulips and jonquils this morning before all of the nasty precipitation...

p.s. Alaskan,it is true - so...

Good morning! -been away from here a bit (undertaking a kitchen remodel) and missed a ton..... -need to catch up! Happy Tuesday and happy coffee drinking!
Happy Saturday! -sending warm wishes to all of those in freezing places. -hope you all stay safe, warm, and supplied with lots o' coffee! -welcoming "window-open-weather" in Texas this day!! -looks to be a bright and beautiful morning! .......just one more cup.
-beautiful snow!! We just have a sheet of ice on the roads. -schools are canceled, college is canceled, so the kids are at home. -two cups of coffee down the hatch and chicken chores on the horizon. -think that the kids shall be commandeered to aid in the chores.
