18 degrees here in Indiana, Pa. Snowing lightly. We were above freezing for a day or two a week ago. Lots of melting and then back down below freezing. Snow everywhere and still lots of really icy patches. Snow on the ground - about 8 inches - is heavy with a thin layer of ice on top. We bought ourselves a small (6x8x7) greenhouse for Christmas and Mr S can’t wait to put it up. He wants to put it over a raised bed and plant lettuce and other cold-tolerant vegetables. I think the snow will be with us for awhile so that is pretty much unrealistic. I’ll admit that I’m looking forward to it myself though!

We finally have warmed to a little above freezing and supposed to contiue for a few days. I think about getting one of those small greenhouses about the size of a bookshelf to use.

However my real desire is a sunroom built on my back patio with window all around and a skylight, and lots of plants growing in the winter time including 2 or 3 lemon trees.LOL
