The view from here this afternoon. After a warm and beautiful fall, today's cold and snow is hitting pretty hard. I'm glad I have a big pot of soup ready for dinner and the fireplace is keeping the Wool House warm. Whether or not Bea and I take our afternoon walk...is up for debate.
Everyone is pretty well tucked in for winter now even though it's going back up into the 60s for several more days after this cold blast. I still had a bunch of blooming blanket flowers and salvias out front and as they've been pretty cold tolerant all fall, I decided to try to save them and built an elaborate "greenhouse" over them.
If it works, I'll share a picture. If not, I'll just take it all down and lick my wounds and know I at least tried. I lost touch with the caterpillar so I can only hope that story has a happy ending somewhere. If I could keep the bees fed for another week or two, it would help.
