Jim and Betty,
       I remember that series of winters in Kentucky:  1976/1977, 1977/1978, 
and 1978/1979, with the last being the "mildest."  After a long cold spell in 
early 1979, I was driving down the street we lived on in Camargo, KY, when 
suddenly the road broke under and the car sunk all the way to the 
undercarriage.  Since it happened almost in front of the house, at least it 
was obvious that I had not done something stupid.     
       It looks like we have another series of very nasty freezes coming this 
way.  The potted TB Irises and the Dormant Daylily varieties appear to be 
loving it.
