Here that basically means rain and snow in the mountains. I'm worried if we don't get it we'll have a bad drought this summer.<br /><br />Casa - I like the way you think. My daffodils were kind of an after thought. They were a gift from someone once and instead of throwing them out I took them out of the pot and plopped them in the ground and forgot they were there. I had some Creeping Jenny planted over them for a few years and they would push right through too.<br /><br />Cat - I really hope you guys don't have to go through the same kind of summer you went through last year. That would be too much to bear for any gardener. Not to mention how difficult it must be on the farmers in your area.<br /><br />Toni - Who would have thought the cold would be the weather making headlines in Dallas last year??? I did go easy on the Scotch this year . . . but only because I need to work in the morning.<br /><br />Kevin - Thanks! I am enjoying it all!Chad Bhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01179848656904542902noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5697737974013665829.post-77096471496031289742012-02-05T16:44:38.819-08:002012-02-05T16:44:38.819-08:00Enjoy the color.

The Packer fans visiting loved it, but I'm sure Jerry Jones was not too happy. So glad we are not repeating that this year. 70 degrees is my kind of winter! My daffodils have buds but none open yet. Any day now :-) Take 'er easy on the Scotch!

But like you, I'm enjoying this faux-spring and trying not to think about it being a harbinger of another hot, brutal summer.

It was so brazen, as if it was in their way and they just shoved it to the side. I can only imagine the dialogue that might have gone along with it. :o) We've had very similar weather here, too. It was 70 the other day.

Whether Mother Nature is or not, I guess remains to be seen. I keep having to remind myself it's only February - we're getting weather warmer than you - and it's easy to forget it could still get cold.HolleyGardenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14892421871044249940noreply@blogger.com
