While it isn't quite as cold here were you are Ross, we have already had our first snow of the season on 10/11/08! But of course our temps have bounced back up and it is 75 degree's today but returning to more normal temps (55-60) for the rest of the week! You can never tell what the winter will bring with our weather here in Idaho...it is always wacky!

Well, shoot. I guess since you've got the 30s and 40s now, Ross, it won't be too much longer till we get some of that over here. I hate the approaching winter.  I could do NYC summers year-round. |

22F degrees here this morning folks! The frost has hit so hard that the lawn is snowwhite these mornings!
It's not pretty! I am having new sneakers put on my SUV this coming Monday....Getting wood into the basement this week. Got my sphagnum moss picked and ready for winter. Moved my chids to their designated winter windows. Hunkering down! 
I'll try to get  before the camera freezes. Not making any promises.

I know Dave, can you believe how cold it's gotten here?!.  I got my sweats out and sneakers with sox all ready...for real! If it get's below 70, I'm going to get the ear muffs on! And I grew up in NY...I don't know how I ever did it. |

It's funny, I actually grew up in Colorado. Went to school in Ohio. Then moved to NYC. And I hate the cold and winter and snow so much.  |

You water lawn !? does that not make it grow, and then you have to mow it which means you you must then fertilize it which means you must mow and water again .
I am thinking of replacing my lawn with a slab of concrete painted green . Just think ,life without mowers weed wakers and lawn fertilizers and watering Equals more time with your chids and most important at my age ,more sleep.Now if I could just persuade my wife...... |

That sounds pretty cold to me.
Tomorrow here 64F but warming to 86F by Saturday. The climate here fluctuates a lot this time of year.
But at least I can't complain about that kind of cold.
