Forget about frost on the pumpkins. I'ts so cold here, our pumpkins pulled up roots and moved south!

It was a long time in coming, but the killing freeze was here.  My patio seems so bare now.  Garden is kaput.  I am happy that the plants lasted this long.  Usually we loose them in September.  Probably why I was becoming so attached.  The crisp air is refreshing.  The trick is not to think about the long, cold endless winter ahead.  My fence for the miniatures is coming around nicely.  They are going to have a nice play area.  Next Spring I hope to get the cart arena finished.  So, on to the next project.

The sun is out!  Just one problem.  If you go outside, the wind will blow you from here to South Dakota without your feet ever touching the ground!  This is still better than the spring surprise we had over the weekend. Snow!  Hopefully with the warm spring wind, all the nasty viruses going around will be evaporated.

It really must be the lack of sunshine affecting my moods.  Today is so cold and gloomy that I actually don't feel well.  Impending feelings of the dreaded flu attacking! Started tackling the basement project.  If the weather wasn't gloomy, that project surely is.  Even my llamas are surly today.  One has taken on the all important task of guarding the 4 day old kittens.  A little nipping at the sleeve to warn prospective petters to stay clear!
