Record Breaking Cold for April

Saturday marked the the 1st time I've ever mowed the lawn wearing thermals, a winter hat and gloves. Unseasonably cold ... even record-breaking cold for this time of year. We haven't been above 32° for almost a week. Even are hardy garden plants like peas and lettuce couldn't survive temperatures that sank to 16° over the weekend. The hummingbird feeder looks like a frozen popcycle and the dog is leery about going out. At least it hasn't snowed again ... yet.
