  14. I would trade roses over snow anyday!! They are just lovely!

    The oranges remind me of my grandparents. . .they wintered in AZ for many years and would always send us a box of oranges for Christmas. . .miss them!

  20. Magnificent photos, we have been lucky here in Colorado, so far. These photos are stunning in the way they convey the survival of the fruits and flowers. Beautiul.

  21. Beautiful pictures! If only I could somehow mentally teleport myself to Arizona, at least during naptime, so I could escape the utterly freezing cold of Central PA. Enjoy those beautiful roses ... we have dead mums in our front yard, perfectly preserved with the frozen pumpkins that we need to get rid of!

  23. RE: Cold in Florida. Yes! In the capital, it gets pretty cold from about mid-November until March. In Jan. and Feb. we'll have 10 degree days.

  27. Now I must go and repent, for I have coveted. Please forgive me? Those oranges are making my tongue tingle right now, and roses in December- you can see where one might just envy a little, right?
