A few shots around the house on Dec 11.
A freaky weather day, in SW Louisiana.
We got about 3½", while some places, a little to the north of us, got 6".
Just click the thumbs for a 1024 x 768 image.

These were taken at about 5:30 AM:

Nice ones TG.

You can think of me in my tent over Central Otago on Christmas Eve. It will probably be at least 35 deg C and I will be looking for some shade. :thumbsup:

Merry Christmas to you and yours.

I thought it was a cold frame, but I'd never seen one with a lamp in it. ~ OB

That's a temporary greenhouse I put up in the winter, to protect my Aloe's.
It's just PVC pipe, with visqueen thrown over it.
The light is a 150 W flood, that I turn on when the temp drops into the 30's.

If you'll notice, there's what looks like a black hole, on the bottom right.
That's one of those throw-away nursery pots, that I cut the bottom out of, then split in half.
That's the entrance for my cats. :flowers:

That's where they sleep, when it get's cold.
If it's 32° outside, it stays about 75° inside the greenhouse.

Is that a sword in the 5th picture under "taken at 7:30AM"?

No, it's a 3 tiered bird feeder, on a post.
Did you click on the image?

Yes, and it still looked kind of like a sword, but I can see the bird feeder now.

I was thinking maybe you were secretly a Dark Knight and wanted to kill King Arthur so you could get your bloody hands on the Holy Grail. :thumbsup:
