I keep pushing for a new house (well, new to me) with enough yard to plant vegies and back off on the flowers. I would use the low tunnels in a heart beat. Lots of people up here use them with great results.

We got quite a nice snow dump last night. But now it is warming and the road are terrible. Schools are closed and the state troopers have shut down several roads as there is no way to control a vehicle on sheer ice going down hill. There was an suv that turned bass ackwards on a hill and the lady driving had enough presence of mind to honk the entire way down to warm people to get out of the way if they could. Of course ended up hitting a vehicle or two at the bottom. No way to avoid it. Sad things is she was trying to turn around at the top to avoid this road but gravity got the rear end of the SUV and that was all she wrote. No body hurt though. I am staying home knitting and baking bread. May haul a few dahlias out of the basement while I still have some left unrotted.
From -60 Alaska to +100 Virginia. Wahoo
