Icy first day of spring

Yesterday my husband set up sprinklers at the 3 fruit trees. Then we heard that the low would only be around 38° so he said for me not to bother to turn on the sprinklers. (He goes to bed at 7 PM and I go to bed at 11 PM). But I thought I'd just go ahead and turn them on anyway since they were all set up, just in case. Glad I did because it got down to 32.°  Probably not cold enough for long enough to hurt anything, but you never know.

You can see some of my tomato plants in the background. I cover them every night just because they'll grow faster the warmer the night is for them.

  1. You never know what Mother Nature will actually come up with. We're nowhere near spring yet on Minnesota tundra...:)

  3. Yikes! I doubt it froze at the oasis, but may have. I'll find out tomorrow when I go down there.
