You Had Me At Hello

We had our first frost this past week. Still not a fan of the cold but the temps eventually got up close to 50 degrees so I shouldn’t complain. We are back to mid 70’s this week and should hit low 80 by Thursday. Mornings will be a little on the cool side but I can live with that…
Although I know the botanical garden is preparing for the holiday event I stopped over Sunday to see how the few remaining flowers handled the frost. Not great, but it is to be expected. It works for me though because I think there is a different beauty in a flower past its prime. What do you think?
