Break time!! All day working in the yard; the garden is nearly ready for a visit from “Foster Freeze.” (Ha, ha, I couldn’t resist using that name. Whatever happened to those shops?? A check of the Internet: They are a California business [and I spent half my life in California].)

I raked…, I swept…, I washed windows. I removed the old nests from the Bluebird house and hosed it clean. I want my Bluebird couple to know that it is waiting for them–next March or April. They visit the meal worm feeder every day. ~~ I arranged, and re-arranged, “the shelter.” Now I have twenty-five planters–and eleven small Christmas Cactus–under cover.

Some large planters will eventually be covered with sheets or light-weight blankets. I positioned supports (for sheets) and feel I’m prepared for the day TV meteorologist’ advise us that freezing temperatures are expected. ~~ I love my tarp-shelter!! Look at all the garden clutter I have “out of sight.”
