Deep Freeze!

Makes Oranges Sweeter..


Sunshine state's in the cooler.  My town couldn't make it to fifty yesterday, or today.  For this early in the season, this cold weather is insane.  Opt for "Florida Oranges" this year.  The colder the wx, the sweeter they are.  California citrus ain't even close.  


Buzzards Circle ABM's Garden..


We picked so many green tomatoes, every window with southern exposure in the house is loaded with 'em.  20-pc stems of cherry tomatoes look like holiday decorations.  Half the garden is toast, we move on to protecting the citrus trees with a little water early in the morning.  


Look on the bright side..


Too cold to ride with jeans on, and while rummaging around, located a heavy set of leather pants we bought at a Daytona Spring Bike Week sale, for...are you ready..?  $19.95.  I don't even mind that they're a size 40 waist, and I'm a 36, they're warm, and that's all that counts.


Also Bright..


There's nothing like ice cold air to make the bike run like it's brand new, although the rebuilt S&S111 in our corporate chopper is nearly new, after last summer's rebuild, and man, does it run sweet.  Now if I could just remember to use the "enrich"  (that's a "choke" for you fuel injection types).
