The Nerd That I Am

There are very few people who would get excited about this announcement, but I finally bought myself a digital, remote sensor thermometer and mounted it in my back yard. It records the high and low temperature for the year, so it’s just too cool. This purchase was mandated, inadvertently, by my next door neighbor who accidentally blew the old thermometer off the fence while pressure washing his back porch (we have very close quarters here in DC)

None of the palms in my outdoor collection need protection until the temps drop below the 20 degree F mark, but it will be fun being able to more closely monitor things this fall.

On another, and completely unrelated note, my S. Minors are blooming. It looks to be a good harvest of seed this year.
