I couldn't agree more, Denise! We've had record heat waves here in the Midwest, and drought conditions as well, throughout the Summer months. Winters of late have been pathetically sparse, with temperatures far above normal (real normal, not just based on the last ten years). I'm hoping and praying we get hit with loads of big snows and lengthy freezing conditions this year, as they are desperately needed to kill out the insects and enrich the soil. And let's face it, Christmas without snow is like Thanksgiving without turkey and dressing... it just isn't right.
