In a way, I think I'd rather have the real snow.  The cottonwood fluff
is a bother for my breathing.

My dad thought he'd lost some tomato plants with the frost they had
about 10 days ago so he went out and bought replacements.  Turned out,
the frost didn't kill the plants so now he and mom will be up to their
eyeballs in tomatoes.  They still have a good amount from what they
canned 2 years ago as well. I don't think the timing will be right for
me to can a couple of dozen pints and bring them south tho.
