. What unusual winter weather we had all over the country. Mark and I hope you wintered it well! For us in Florida it was warmer than we have ever experienced. The northern horses thought it was like summer at home. We used more fly spray in a season than we have used ever before. The up side was that the flowers throughout Florida were spectacular all winter! We enjoyed them.
