CW, can I be one of your flowers, I need warmed up.

(did you get on the idig map?)
The lake by me is froze over all the way & the sun yesterday didn't have enough heat to melt the ice on the driveway.

Putting studded snow tires on today, snow in the forecast.

Sending warm cyber hugs - just visualize bright pink mandevillas and dark burgandy dahlias with purple Mexican bush sage!

Yea, me too. If I didn't I'd move. I think the short daylight hours is the toughest.
Lots to do, & hobbies help. Making it thru to the end of Feb is tough if you don't get outside (go south somewhere) for a week or so.
Now that winter is here, I wish it would snow

CW: got it

No shortage of Rocks for the Scotch there.

It's still yet to be First Frost here in 'Bama--The coldest I've been in was -18----the hottest 140 in the shade.

Hang In and watch out for the "Snakes"- west-- across the Bering-----Ax

We rarely get snow, so it just looks cold and bleak here Jan and Feb.

Thanks bogy - that is awesome! I might use it for background this winter!

Yeah bogy, get those snowmobiles tuned up and ready! Maybe after I finish grad school I can move up there for a few years- sure want to- and hubby wants to do all the hunting and fishing. We'll bring our sleds too... polaris, couple of v-max, and a wildcat. old, but they work for here.
