This is not the U.P.


This past week in mid Michigan we had one of the worst snowstorms I hav ever seen. Most people who know me would say she is glad since she likes to ski. Most people would be correct in that assumption. But skiing is not the only good thing about the white stuff. It gives great insulation to my butterfly bushes. And for that I am grateful.




One winter, not too long ago, it was beastly cold here, but without a lot of snow. Both the butterfly bushes I had died on me that year.



So when you are cursing the white stuff, remember, it gives good protection to those plants you cherish.
