"Polar Vortex"--Part 2

The plan is executed.  While moving plants, I realized that I needed to do a couple more things to get ready for the freeze.  I emptied any container holding water (I keep dishes with water in them for the birds) and I topped off both of my bird feeders--they will need extra fuel to keep warm.   When the temperature begins to drop, I'll also allow my outside faucets to drip a little to help keep the pipes from freezing.

Now we wait . . . it is hard to believe there is a terrible freeze on its way since it is currently 59 degrees in my backyard--the warmest it has been in days!
There is an orange tree under those blankets.
