Wacky Weather!

Our weather here in St. Augustine this winter has been crazy!  First it was in the teens and twenties every night for over two weeks.  Our poor palms and other tropical plants did not fair well at all.  We've finally warmed back up into the 60s and we're loving every minute of it.  Then last Thursday we were in for another surprise.  We'd been having storms all day with heavy rain and winds and tornado warnings.  At school, the kids spent a couple of hours sitting in the hallways away from all windows as the warnings passed.  Dan and I heard a strange sound and looked out to see hail coming down.  It was pretty to watch since we were at home rather than out in it.  Owen even came out to the lanai to check it out with us and he was in heaven.  He loves ice cubes and couldn't resist eating the hail that bounced through the open door into the lanai! 

This is about as close as we're going to get to snow this year I think!  Now, come on Spring!!!
