Frost!?

We had a frost advisory last night! In September! The thermometer tells me it went down to 37. Not a frost, thank goodness, because I left some houseplants outside. But they are not going to be happy.

We turned on the heat for the first time since the spring.

I'm ready for the dry, sunny days in the low 70's that are forecast for this week. But I'm not ready for the freezing nights, yet. It looks like last night will be the coldest of the week. Whew. That gives me some breathing room to figure out where I am going to put all the plants that summered on the patio.
