Brrrr! Got down to 17 here in northeast Oklahoma, last night. Of course, it was 60°, last week. We only get about six weeks of what I’d call winter. Up north, we used to get at least four months of winter, not counting 2 months of wintry spring. Down here, roses bloom through most of December, and if you don’t get your garden plowed up, and spring onions set out by March 1st, you’ll hit the rainy season, and won’t be able to get your tomato plants out in April. As a matter of fact, spring’s right around the corner, and people are starting to plant tomato seeds indoors, so their tomato plants will be ready to transplant by then. I don’t miss that northern weather one bit! Stay warm!

A young man from Oklahoma lived with me for a few months several years ago.

I had to teach him some of the “tricks” of shoveling snow.:-)
