GLOBAL WARMING DOESN'T KEEP ITS PROMISES

I've just finished bringing in plants, covering plants, and putting plants on the back porch this week due to freeze warnings. I live on the Texas coast and just far enough north to get freezes every winter. I had thought with an entire year of abnormally hot weather, that perhaps the trend would carry through the 3 winter months. I would finally have a dream come true. With a bit warmer winters I would not have to worry about frosts.
FAT CHANCE!
Our last 2 winters have had temperatures in the low 20s and now I'm wondering if yet again we will have a bad winter. Where did all the heat go? WINTER SEEMS TO HAVE NO MEMORY OF  SUMMER. 
If the past drought and heat from the last two years were caused by global warming, then all we get is global extremes. Now gardeners get to fight the heat and the cold...and the drought. Good thing we don't give up easily.

"The Mad Gardener" Here's how I feel this week with frost warnings! It's too early!

Time to drag the plants indoors. I couldn't bear to watch these get freeze burn...the foliage is too nice.

Manger scene with aloes. These aloes would freeze outdoors. Now they are part of Christmas. :-)

Thanks for visiting.
