The scene out back on the morning of Dec. 11, a little after 9:00 a.m. A good cover of frost around the vineyard, with our weather station and solar panels visible. Our property still mostly in the shade, but the goat dairy beyond in full morning daylight.
A week later, the sunset was not too shabby, either.
Fruits and Votes 
Thanks to the weather station records, I can report it was 35F when I took that first photo. Pretty cold for these parts that late in the morning! (The low had been 27, which is still pretty toasty compared to Dec. 6, when it was 20 overnight–and still under 32 at 9:00!)
