I took this picture today as an update to my last.
The short amount of warm we have had has caused
the crowns on these to pop up. Great news if it weren't
about to freeze again Tuesday night.

Normal this time of year is 65F/45F and it is going to be
40's/30's for a few days. I'm thinkin' as long as we don't
hit anymore records we'll be all right.

In the last couple days I saw some huge old canary island
date palms 100% scorched...mine are about 70%. It is
interesting they are the last to show damage, the queens being
second to last (although they went from green to bleached
in a few days). The Pindos seems happy...they were already blue.
