Literally thousands of pansies, begonias, callies, and vincas to be potted in the next few days at the greenhouse. Not to mention a shipment of 5,000 geraniums arrive Thursday. Thankfully, there is an absolutely fantastic crew to work with. Ron

Glad you like the lighthouse photo, mare_wbpa. I wish I had my desktop PC here (at winter get-away). I have more photos on it to choose from. I'm enjoying Casey's posts and selecting one of my photos to add to it each day. Marcia

Gazania, I loved your turkeys!! I think it would be a hoot to see that many in my yard and I'm pretty sure that Fred would just go bonkers. LOL We see one every now and then in the woods where we ride, but I don't get them in my yard!! Cool picture.

Those are very unusual photos, caflower. I assume the oranges were frozen. Thanks for sharing the pictures. They often have to run fans (or something) in the Ojai area when it gets frosty. I remember when smudge pots were used; not sure if they do that anymore. I think it snowed as well back in the early 50's or maybe late 40's. (Referring to lower elevations where it "never" snows, not the mountains of course).
