Freeze!

Last night was our first freeze.

I haven't gotten dressed yet to go outside and look around, but the frost is still apparent in the shady areas. I ended up moving the cacti in a couple days ago; the geraniums are adapting to sunny windows; the begonia, for the moment, is in the garage, poor thing. And the petunia pots? The big one by the door, which I really should post a picture of, is protected by the overhang. The window boxes, well, the window boxes are at Mother Nature's mercy. Que sara, sara. I think they'll survive for at least a couple more weeks. Once we get past Halloween, I'll clean them out and put them away for the winter, maybe.

I'm rolling an idea around in my head for winter, too.....
