in the midlantic at least? i note Al is warm and snug and expecting a plague of frogs; everybody else OK? 35 inches total on my deck. we were out of power for 18 hours (all electric house); had votives going as smudge pots for the orchids for a while. some of the little phals look unhappy, but so far the only bud blast is on the psychopsis, which has been blasting all winter. clearly it's unhappy about the cold/dry/both.
oh, and it was snowing this morning. :\

Then I won't tell you what a great day it is in N Calif...

I'm down in North Carolina where we got enough snow a couple weeks ago it was impossible to catch a late show at the theatres one Saturday afternoon.
I'm sick with some crud with body aches and coughing, and NOW a stopped up nose.. I blame my youngest for infecting me.
The cymbidiums are happy enough despite their neglect and the Zelonkiia Onusta is very happy. Beyond that, the orchid bug is somewhat waning for me. Not enough time, not enough space, and just not giving me the same level of enjoyment as the garden.
Chris, what are you doing in NC, when you could be freezing here in FL?
Diana (Blast Is Us!)
It's probably because of the steady job in NC. The situation with the step kids is also a factor. It also doesn't help that my wife has declared points south of south carolina to be too hot and humid for her in the summer and florida also is dubbed "Too many bugs."
She's been liking the idea of Ohio River Valley parts of Kentucky and bits of Upstate New York for when the kids are out of the house.
If she can declare Fl 'too many bugs', then you NEED to declare any parts further north 'too much snow'. Ohio River Valley??? Upstate Snow York???
Is she KIDDING??
