They are! At least your son was listening (sort of!)

"Obstacle Delusions " That would be something like this!

"A man told police that he was trying to “time travel” after crashing his car through the offices of a shopping centre - and coming out the other side."

"The Dodge Challenger ploughed through a wall in Pensacola, Florida taking out a wall connecting a financial advisers and a coffin-making business."

"The uninjured driver told police, before going to hospital for evaluation, that he had been attempting to travel through time before the crash."

My daughter's Cat Fred gave no indication of how this winter would be. (He wanders around the house looking for the doorway to summer. (Like the SciFi Story.))

Pictures from the February Garden. I really did not intend to Winter Garden this year.

Dug up the remaining few leeks. (1 Mussleburgh, several Blu de Soleil, and a few Jaune de Poitou.) They survived -20 weather for a week under the snow and were fine.

Broccoli Gypsy (left side ) and Broccoli Castle Dome (right side) under cover on 1/28/24 after 7-10 days under a a blue tarp to protect against the -20 weather.

Same plants on 2/3/2024. The Gypsy broccoli (24" approx height) survived and produced small heads, and is beginning to produce side shoots. (I removed the center heads some of which had frost damage, and am encouraging side shoot production. ) (Note the interplanted lettuce.)

The Castle dome broccoli was damaged by the cold and I pulled them up. Variety Gypsy which is small enough to grow in a low tunnel and would be a better winter garden variety.

Some Cauliflower (Varieties Amazing and Dugesh ) Giant Red Mustard, turnips. The cover collapsed on the weight of the snow. Cleaned them up and re-covered them. (No straw for mulch at this time.) Not too hopeful but will see what they do they survived this long, maybe we will continue to have warm weather and they will surprise me.
