Yes, it is so nice to enjoy some milder weather. My son went to 'Big Day
Out' yesterday. Who would want to spend a whole day in a huge crush of
people. It wasn't overly hot, but many suffered from heat exhaustion. I was
happy to see him home, unscathed, this morning.

I have just bought a new fridge, and the upper part is a deep freeze style,
so probably colder than the old fridge. It doesn't have a tray under the
freezer, as they have seperate doors.
I can't imagine that a bit colder would hurt the seeds. How cold do they get
in a cold US winter?
What do others think?
Cheers, Jan
