As against this video taken just 2 days ago.January 11th, 2012

So far winter has been rather mild and so far we have not had much in the way of snow. Bulbs are coming up and even the daylily has started to show some green returning. The lemon verbena and mint have not really gone dormant yet.

Yesterday things came to a screetching halt with a cold front and the arrival of snow. We missed the bullet for real snow and the grass has yet to be covered but wind but continual snow drizzle makes it seem dull and wintery out there.
