No, this is not happening at my home in Florida right now, but I feel like my plants are going to think it is. We had a near-freeze last night and will most assuredly have a hard freeze tonight. I mourn for the blueberry bushes that are in full bloom and the orange trees that have flower buds nearly ready to open. The Azaleas are toast! So much for the nice warm winter that has everything blooming a month before it should. Why is the "inevitable" always something disappointing? If we lived just 50 miles west of here we would be on the Gulf coast and not worry about freezes because of the mitigation of the warm Gulf of Mexico waters. As it is, we can only stand by and wait to see if the weather that is predicted will only affect the most northern part of our area and not make it to our yard. It is enough to make one philosophical.

FRACTURES AND LEAKS
FRACTURES and LEAKS
Commentary, poetry, pictures, humor about life as seen through the eyes of a man old enough to know better but undisciplined enough to expose his inner processes to anybody curious enough to look. This is the next step in my attempt to follow meaningful paths after the death of my wife of nearly forty-four years from cancer. It is therapy for a retired psychotherapist. We will discover the limits as we go.
