I saw my first wooly bear caterpillar of the season.  It had more rusty brown than black meaning a milder winter.  (I guess it has a 50/50 chance of being right LOL). :snowman: :snowman: :snowman:

Haven't yet seen any wooly worms.  But it's unusual here to have a harsh winter.  I always hope for at least one decent snow.   We have lots of firewood ready, I tend to want a fire burning as soon as it gets cool enough.  Nothing like sitting in front of the fire in the evenings.

We have had a lot of the wooly right now. And they keep wanting to settle  on my house. Not happy about that.  So keep  putting them in the trees and  on other  buildings.  we  need to  get wood, but it has been so darn hot, and hubby can't  work in the  high heat. Just makes him sick.  Before he got  heat exhaustion it didn't seem to bother him but now it is bad. I hate to see him get gray around the lips.

We got our first sprinkle today... yeah, I'm so excited! 
That's about it for winter, it was still almost 80' outside.

I don't get snow here. Thankfully.... Californians can't drive in the rain, they wouldn't be able to handle snow on the road... well the vast majority of them. :)

 I haven't seen any woolly caterpillars yet   Winter is not my favorite season but I hope the projection for milder winter comes true.  :pumpkin: :rose:  :peace: :wave:

I haven't seen any wooly caterpillars yet.  I don't  particularly like winter.....the cold gets to me and it lasts so long.  We seemed to be skipping FALL right now.  36 degrees with sunshine.

Hate snow, hate winter.  Hate the winter season.

Girl, you and I are on the same page!  I detest winter, snow, having to wear coats and boots, having to shovel snow, clear snow off my car if it's been out of the garage for some time, and the general feeling of being closed in.  I dislike not being able to open my windows and paying for the hot, dry air my furnace provides.  Sometimes I wonder what I'm doing in Michigan.  I did try to get out of here twice when I was much younger but it just didn't work out!

I love the winter time. We can't use my fireplace anymore here, air pollution  :'( cause I love to organize my firewood and care for it to stay dry, love to watch the flames make the logs crackle, but no more, maybe I shall move. I want to visit the snow this year.

I never know you can distinguish harsh or mild winter just by looking at wooly bear caterpillar
