A little bit of color...

We got home from Georgia the other night and saw that the geraniums Pam had planted this spring had still survived, and looked really healthy and bright red.  This was despite a couple of light early frosts we had had here in the outbacks.

These sure gave us a lot of bright red color against the green grass all of the spring, summer and fall.  Then, unfortunately, we got a pretty good freeze here last night as temps dropped down to about 23 degrees.  This morning, they were all bent over and withered.  What a shame -- it's too early for such a freeze. We'll see you again next Spring.

“October extinguished itself in a rush of howling winds and driving rain and November arrived, cold as frozen iron, with hard frosts every morning and icy drafts that bit at exposed hands and faces.”  (J.K. Rowling, Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix)
