Gorgeous photos, Trudee! And great sunflower info, too. You are really making me miss flowers!

Thanks so much Melinda......hopefully by viewing flowers that are not in season where you are at the moment will fill the gap a little until you can enjoy the flowers in your garden again.
You are right! It certainly helps! It was very dreary here today, not quite as cold and it ended up raining most of the day. Bleak but better than snow!
Do you have central heating in your home Melinda?
Yes and I do not know anyone in Wisconsin who does not. Natural gas is widely available, although some rural residents must use propane. I am lucky to have natural gas, because heating with propane has gotten expensive. Forced air furnaces like mine, are the most common.
I imagine it would be very hard to survive the winters in areas with temps and snowfalls like yours without adequate heating Melinda. Although Brisbane can get very cold at times I didn't have any heating on at all last winter. It was very mild for me but I do know others in the same complex wouldn't agree with me. Our unit faces north east and we get a lot of sun which makes all the diference. I'd love to experience a white Christmas one day.
I think we would call your winter temps cool, not cold! Cold is when the moisture inside your nose freezes when you breathe! I do hope you get to come play in the snow sometime!
Haha.......I don't believe I've had the pleasure of icicles forming inside my nostils before Melinda. That would make an interesting macro shot wouldn't it? I'd LOVE to come and play in the snow one day.........so I will continue to steem on and hope the steem/steam doesn't melt the snow. (lol)
I looked to see if I had a picture of Jim with icicles hanging from his beard. I've seen it happen but must not have ever taken any pictures! That's when you know it is cold!
