Ouch

Yeah, right? 

I had zero business being out in this stuff but a beer after an interesting day called me out....actually drove 8 miles too the west around 1:30 pm, it was way worse out as you can see by the time I had to drive back east. This pic was taken around 4pm CST...2 miles into my slow trip back came across a Hertz truck in the ditch on the eastbound side, then probably 3 miles later there's a hill...as I rounded the bend to go down the hill I see a semi that had turned sideways across the road coming from the east, the driver was frantically waving in the road...simultaneously I saw the lights of the County Sheriff in my rear view....he waved me by minutes later, just enough room to squeeze by in my lane...

Yep, a normally 8-10 minute drive took 35 minutes or better. Wet, heavy snow!

 I came to a stop to survey the situation....the video didn't last but a second because that's when the sheriff came up behind me...bye bye phone!

😃 finally signs of spring are here!

My garlic is looking good some Chive and a Iris 

Now the work starts I have a 1/4 of food and shrubs to attend to.

Love those little Iris flowers. And having a nosy round people's gardens. I actually work as a gardener, not that you can tell from my own garden! I sneak good stuff in, here and there, but try not to get too precious about most bits, as they inevitably get crushed by a ball or clumsy foot...

Did my best again in 2025 to make our garden "divine"

New palm trees 

No weeds 

Cutted a lot down to make it optic bigger...more sunlight 😁
