You look lovely Colleen! If I ever decide to do something to my hair I do like the mult-colored look. Makes it look more natural.

Well thanks! I was hoping it would have been more drastic, but this way is good too.

Last night we drove out of town to party in Brooks. When I got home and looked out window in back I seen that the Greenhouse was on fire. Thankfully I put raging fire out with handy dandy garden hose that I always have on hand for pond at the "Ready" but most of the plants were toasted.

Will build a better one next year further away from house. I had candles going just to keep it extra cosy like I aways do but something must have went wrong.

I'm sorry to hear that Colleen. :(
Very glad you got the fire out!
In our climate, heating and safety are a constant issue.

It could have turned out much worse.

Extension cords, breaker overloads, candles left burning - it doesn't take much.
Good thing you kept the damage to a minimum.

It was extra cold last night, think it was down to minus 28 or something. Last year things got too cold so I put some candles in to keep it warmer. It was getting old and I have new ideas for better greenhouse this spring. I want a double paned glass roof that I plan to put together myself.
