It upset Holly that I put the glass and aluminum patio table back out on the patio for the year. I said "Hey, it's daylight savings time in 9 days. And spring is on the way." But even if we get only wet and cold what can that do to glass and aluminum? It could affect the canvas umbrella but that's easy enough to take down and put in the garage for another week.
When it's really cold in the morning I go into the back room and have my coffee there (much warmer than the kitchen because the sun is shining in). Best yet though is to sit on the patio. Even on a cold day it's warm in the sun and the fence keeps off any cold wind.
This is Holly's cactus garden. Cheerful in the morning.
The other evening I saw the moon rising over my neighbor Gary's big pine tree. For some reason my camera though doesn't capture any details of the moon. It always shows up as merely a white disk--no craters. I assume the camera design (or my settings) cause this but I don't really know why. I think it has to do with the moon and sky being too contrasty. If the moon were dimmer the image would come out just fine.
