Moles are cute aND easy to catch. I used to play with moles as a kid.
I was having "withdrawals" all weekend! !! Hubby on some decaffeinated coffee kick and I was just soooooo tired!! Got a fresh brew of dark roast freshly grounded coffee and it is NOT decafe!

Addy it's snowing on your videos. Dark there but I can see some sticking.

Was another warm sunny day here and over 60f and felt just like Summer. Went for a walk w/ the grandkid and daughter around the hood. Rain is coming tomorrow for Heaven's sake. How cruel is that to give us 2 beautiful days and then hit us in the face w/ rain.

Sissy if your state needs more moles I can surely send you a large quantity of highly prized, plump w/ nice coloring ones just for postage

60 here yesterday, 57 today..
The frost is starting to come out of the ground in some places.
I looked at the long term forecast and there's NO really cold weather coming.:)
It's January for Pete's sake!
Sorry for all you folks out east.

Problem with nice warm weather that scares me is the fact that the trees are budding out and all my spring bulbs are popping up .I want fruit this year ,last year we got a late frost after fruit trees were flowering and I got almost no fruit .:(:mad:

I know what you mean Mitch! So very happy to have such wonderful weather in January! This time last year it was very cold and ground was frozen solid. Now the ground is thawing here too and now they have truck bans on some back roads cause you sink out of sight! Was a mud bath down at the river park, but I drove in 4 wheel and ground was getting pretty soft today.

Currently a very nice Plus 13 Celsius, or 55 Fahrenheit.

We are still cold, would prefer it stayed cold for a while, the bees are going through their winter stores too fast. We are feeding them already. It has been a warm winter earlier, they fly around 45 degrees, no food out there so using up energy then come back to the hive to eat up the winter stores.

Like you sissy, our peach trees bloomed beautifully one February, then it froze, zero fruit. Last year we did not have one blossom. I have my fingers crossed for this year.
