I thought I saw the last of the fifty degree temperatures, but the strong winds must be bringing in some warmer than normal temperatures and keeping the snow away. I'm not complaining. I learned long ago that one doesn't wish for snow, because Jack Frost doesn't forget to come even if he is a little late. This mini-weather pattern we are in is unusual though. By this time of year, most everything green has either died from multiple frosts or is covered in snow. Even my neglected flower pot is thriving. The annual pansies that act like perennials usually flower in mid-July, but seeing as all of our rain fell in August and September, their life-cycle is delayed and they are continuing to bloom.
