80 Degrees ? Are You Kidding Me ?

That's WHISKEY SOUR sunning himself in the sun this morning..we have all the doors and windows wide open...because today our thermometer in the garden read 80 degrees. what is going on? i have been watching the Weather Channel and the whole world is buried in snow. i don't know if 80 degrees is a good thing or a bad thing. it just seems strange....
there is little Teddy outside this morning by the kitchen door in the herb garden...or what will be the herb garden come summer. right now the borage that i planted a couple of years ago has re-seeded and is coming up all over...the bumble bees love it.

this is my Spring Showers ....it is already blooming ...you can see the rose hips on my Berries and Cream rose in the background....



this was the view this morning...january 16th, 2011 from my clothesline in the backyard...notice the palm trees...so california...and that mountain is called Mission Mountain. at Christmas there is a lighted tree on top and at Easter a lighted cross.


my yellow johnny-jump-ups are blooming...leftover from last year...and still going....





my yellow Banks rose was blooming this morning too... i don't know why it is so warm here... i guess i will just go with it...feels like summer so this afternoon i am making a blueberry crisp....
