Welcome to Saturday Morning Garden Blogging.
We did another of those weird Denver weather turnarounds this week. On Wednesday, December 18, we hit a record high of 68°; yesterday the high was 22° and a few lazy snow flakes were floating around. We'll have cold and bits of snow through mid-week — indeed, may even have falling snow for Christmas Eve and morning.
And at 10:11 a.m. MST today is the Winter Solstice — a reason for the season. Well, actually, you know, the season itself. Like, WINTER.
And isn't that the greatest gift of all — that we're heading towards spring, rather than towards winter?
Here at Casa de Frankenoid we'll just be hanging out — we keep it pretty low key for Christmas.
That's what's happening here. What's going on in your gardens?
6:27 AM PT: Forgot to mention: I'll be celebrating Festivus by the annual recounting of Mary's ordeal in Silent Fucking Night -- look for it about 5:00 p.m. MST on Monday
