In the northeastern part of the country we had a beautiful warm day
thursday, it was amazing.
This gave me a day to some yard work that I did not get to lst time it
was this warm(november)
I now, am looking forward to spring which will not come fast enough.
Though the most snow that we have had in this area was about three
inches.
So we are probably due for some, though today may be my lucky day.

Las Vegas has been on average 5-10 degrees above the norm for this
time of year. Spring is here, Ii can feel it. Got on a T-shirt.

I've had giant bird-of paradise flowers thrived and these were
planted in November. The one I had in a container from another house
had plenty of flowers. New 48" box queen palms (huge) are doing great.

I cored/aerated the lawn in December, threw out some seed that's
already up and doing fine, as is some sod plugs. My lawn is nearly
ready to mow.

Snow!? I see that over on top of the mountains. I have to check but I
think we are at the mid 60 degree point right now.

I'm still chilly because it is below 90 degrees....
