Weather is great here, 52f degrees, sun and clouds, almost no wind, it rained last night. I can't believe that there are still petunias blooming in my pots, plus some other plants in the garden, the grass is still green, DH had to cut it yesterday, this has not happened before in my 14 years of living here.

over here days are cloudy with some light rain, mornings with mist.
Day temps are around 57F, nights around 47F
Not too bad, but I would love to see some sun again...

Mayo

So sorry for the show and cold.

Linda, nice to get some rain.

Seriously, it is thundering here again and we are getting an extremely fine almost invisible rain here, just started. "Toto, I do not think we are in Arizona anymore".....

We've had just a tiny bit of rain too. It was only enough to settle the dust, but I'm happy. The dust was getting bad! Lots of cloud cover and cool air, so we got 400 feet more of fence put up. Over 1,500 or so more feet to go on that line, but it is a start!

The invisible rain stopped here pretty quickly but now the rain has just restarted and it is very visible!

Linda & Natty!

Even chillier here this morning, 16F (-9) overnight. Quite a switch from the beginning of last week when we were in the 70s F (20s C). Time to drag out the winter woollies.

That is really cold Sue, hasn't been that cold here yet. It's 35f here, there was some fog but it's gone now, overcast with a slight chance of a shower this morning.

I could take pictures of the 2" of snow on my deck that fell yesterday and mention that it was 29 degrees last night, ugh, but I would rather introduce you to the newest love of my life who arrived Friday a week ago from Dallas. ATP members meet.

Little 'Kismet'




a 2 1/2 lb. of mischief and love. What a wonderful paradox.

Congratulations on your new bundle of joy!!

Thanks Natalie. She is just precious, smart as Einstein, lovable as a teddy bear, and ripping into everything not tied down. Working on house training for a week, this morning she 'pooped and peed' outside in the snow for the first time. Being from Texas, snow is a new adventure for her. She loves it. Very early first snowfall with Fall Foliage still going on.

Alex, she is adorable, I am very happy for you!

Thank-you, Margaret. She definitely has put an extra step in my life, and glint in my eye. She's a sweetheart.

How cute, Alex.


They are calling for a high of 77F. Yesterday got up to 80F here at the house.

haha, over here we NEVER jump for joy when it rains! We get more than our share
Au contraire: 3 or 4 days of sun and 25+ degrees (C) are reasons to celebrate

2" snow in October... wow, you must have a really long winter period..!
Don't get me wrong: I LOVE winter! The whole 2 months or so that we usually have it
I wouldn't want to live in a country in the tropics, where all seasons are alike (except for the rain season, and that's no fun either )
But 5 or 6 (or 7??) months of snow and freezing temperatures? No way!
I guess you like it or else you wouldn't live there, right?

Alex, your Kismet is a cutie!!
She's a Pomeranian, isn't she?


Mayo

We very much jump for joy here, Mayo!

The rain that started at 4:00 yesterday gave us another .24 so this has been a great three days! Temp now is only 77 with a humidity of 54!

Congratulations on your new 'friend' Alex.

It's pleasant today, a sunny day with a bit of wind but not too cold.

Kelli and Mayo, thank-you. Yes, she is a Pom (Pomeranian) 13 weeks old today.
