Weather!!

We had 2 days of warm, muggy days and nights. Poof, cold front moved in - now it’s damp, dreary and generally miserable. :-(

One positive happening is - Hummingbirds are not driven away due to lousy weather. One comes to visit me daily when I am sitting on the front porch.
Happy, Happy, Happy!
