Would you believe, I have that book?  You all were praising so much last 
year, I bought it for myself for Christmas!  But, I haven't looked at it for 
awhile, and guess I forgot that it had winter information, as well as that 
for the growing season.  How silly of me!  Guess I better go get it out and 
see what it has to say about my plants!

I suspect my winter is real similar to Kentucky; maybe just a little warmer. 
  But, as you say, ice instead of snow, thunderstorms as likely as winter 
storms in December and January...

Thanks!
