It is February and we should be maybe in the 40s, but if you like I'll photograph a carving in front of the Daffodils all bloomed in my front yard. Mid 70s so far this week but all our fruit trees are in danger. Buds are about to spring, and then all it will take is one night below 28 degrees and there goes the peach and apple crop for the year.

My pear tree produce about a dozen pears last year, is all. Normally, I tell the folks in the neighborhood to bring their grocery bags and fill 'em up, we usually have so many! The unseasonable early warm-up last year was at fault - fooled the tree into blossoming early - then a cold snap killed them. As I look out into the yard, the pear tree is blossoming again already! Hope we don't have a repeat of last year!

Michael,
That happened here also. Early warmup. Everything thought it was spring then suddenly winter was back and killed off half of it. Very few cherries and pears.

We only got 16" of snow to the foot we already had! How much did you get?

Okay Robert, Terry has a point...

and it leads me to a question.

Is it real grass? I'm about an hour or so south of you, and all of my grass is brown. Hasn't grown back yet.

What gives?

OK Terry & Alex,
It is real grass and don't you just enjoy seeing it?
I live 18 miles south of Willis, Willis is were I work. My grass in Conroe is brown also, must be the northen location of Willis.
Really I don't know, it is nice to look at.
