Freezing day and night.

According to my car thermometer, the temperature barely made it above zero degrees today in County Antrim. Tonight it will be very cold indeed.

As much as it can be trouble and even worrying, I like a good spell of frost. It reminds us of the cycle of nature and the changing seasons. For gardeners, it breaks the soil up into a fine, crumbly texture.
I also enjoy the look of those crisp, frosty mornings. ..
