But, here's a Heuchera flattened by frost, and not likely to ring...until spring.

A chilly, gray day with no wind.

Pax and Buddy seem to have known each other for ages, like a couple of old bachelors who have been bumping into each other for decades. Buddy likes to walk, and enjoys the neighborhood big-block, which is a good 15 minute circle, if not more. Pax likes it too, but taking both around at the same time is a challenge, requiring dexterous hand switching, some pirouetting, and the occasional disentanglement. Sometimes they both become fascinated by the scent of a particular place, and then I know they are compadres.
