RE: now weather-Progress on the garden wall

Donna: Just as I was going to bed Tues a.m., I caught the last of the
weather report...6 degrees below zero with a wind chill of 24 degrees
below...I think our high temp. for the day was something like 9
above...I'm ready for the balmy temps that are coming at the end of the
week...20 degrees will feel like heaven after these past couple of days.
:-) Don't you live in the Chicago area? I couldn't take the Lake
Michigan winds...brrr! Times like this I get to fantasizing about a nice
vacation to someplace warm.

Currently zero here with a wind chill of -19... Burrrrrrrrrrrrr Glad
my<br>plants have some snow cover on them!<br><br>You are right Melody,
we need pictures and thoughts of much
warmer<br>weather.<br><br>Donna<br>Zone, IL<br><br><br>> Theresa: Oh,
could you let me come and help plant something? anything?<br>> :-) With
about 7 inches of snow on the ground from a weekend long<br>> snowstorm,
it now feels like a proper midwest winter here...but it has<br>> also
gotten darned cold...temps. in the single digits with winds 10-20<br>>
mph thereby dropping the windchill down into below
zero<br>temps...brrr!!!!<br>> Probability for more snow later in the
week, but just a little. Your<br>> pictures were great...it is always so
wonderful to see what people on<br>> this list are working on in their
own gardens. My husband and I have<br>> long been talking about putting
in a retaining wall along our front<br>> sidewalk and this spring will
probably be our year to do this<br>> project...won't be as extensive a
job as yours and the wall will most<br>> likely be lower but you've
provided some great inspiration, so thanks<br>a<br>> bunch!<br>> <br>>
