.................Spring didn't come!

Photos from frosty mornings.

Tonight and tomorrow night we'll be bombarded again with a deep freeze.
Temperatures will plummet, remaining far below freezing for night and early
 morning hours. I'm thinking of ways to save some of the budding 
shrubs, particularly the hydrangeas now showing bright green shoots. 
Last year this occurred and the usual wonderful display of blue
  mophead blooms in summer never happened. I really missed them.
Old sheets will be pulled out of the linen closet this evening and tossed
in a ghostly fashion over the shrubs. . . . . fingers crossed that will help.
Azaleas will have to fend for themselves I'm afraid, we have so many
 and the bushes are huge. 

 However, they are on their way . . . . . . those lovely days of sun, 

blue skies, green leaves, warmth. 

We'll throw off the heavy jackets, put the boots in storage, clean the car, 
service the mower, cut the new grass . . . . . . . and be extremely thankful.
