How about a little weather whiplash???

My friends from around the world are always sending me wonderful photos of their gardens and fun places they have been as well as their weather reports!!!   Yesterday two of my dear friends, Jan who lives in Arizona and Cathy who lives not far from Diana in Iowa both sent me some fun images I thought you all would love to see that clearly give us all some serious weather whiplash….such extremes!!!.

Here is what Jan wrote to me…what an absolutely gorgeous photo and Jan you look Maaaaaveluos!:

Here is a photo Tom took of me a couple of weeks ago when we went to the Chihuly exhibit at the Desert Botanical Gardens in Phoenix.  Tom went kicking and screaming and left jumping and smiling and a new fan of Chihuly glass art.  The exhibit was spectacular and really showed off the desert flora in a completely new and wonderful way.

Above is an example of what happens when you have dogs and fences to keep them in…..and the snow ends up becoming what Cathy calls  “The bridge to Freedom”…lol!  Here’s what Cathy writes…I can’t believe Rowdy stood there without going over!!!!!.

Here’s Rowdy on the big snow. Squirrels live in that hole in the tree and with the snow so high it puts the dogs at eye level with them!
