Well, it's January in Colorado and we are really enjoying a break in the cold weather. We saw the coldest day so far this year a couple of weeks ago, it got down to about -5F.
The problem is that the warm front has brought in some unbelievably high winds, we had gusts last night that sounded like they wanted to tear shingles off of our roof and actually did tear a 10 foot section of our fence off of the house. I was out there at 8AM pounding nails in to keep it together enough so that Dexter can't get out. I'll have to take it completely apart later this week when the weather calms down.
To the left you can see our lovely Aero Garden. Can you believe we "planted" this thing only 4 weeks ago? It does put out a lot of light though, our neighbors probably think we are growing vegetables of the illegal variety! Apparently the Aero Grow people are going to put out a strawberry patch kit this spring which is what I'm really looking forward to. Supposedly you will be able to harvest 2.5 lbs of strawberries after 8 weeks and keep harvesting for months after that! :) Can you tell I like strawberries?
