Weird!!!!!!!! and we've had a couple of good frost already and lite snow,, I guess crazier things have happened,, I can only guess they were snuggled in a warm place while the frost was happening,, because since then it's been in the 70's the weather report says this is the last day for nice weather for a while,, Sooooooooo I'm going to go take Emmy On a long walk now,, we won't be long walking tomarrow,, "Grace without perfection is more to be desired than perfection without grace."
