No! It may feel Wintery, outdoors, but this is just a test to see how our lamp posts would look if they were all outfitted with wreaths like this next Christmastime. Although the carton it arrived in looked huge, according to Lorena Lenard, this particular sample appears to be too small!
What do YOU think?

I think it's going to be a slow week: everyone's really just waiting!

Excerpted from WKTV's forecast:"........ gorgeous start to Tuesday. Ample sunshine will boost temperatures a little more than we've seen over the last few days, with highs in the low 40s, still a bit below normal (mid 40s). Clouds will increase tomorrow afternoon out ahead of a quick moving, weak system that will bring us mixed rain and snow showers. Tomorrow night there could be a period of snow. Accumulations should be confined to hilltops, but will be light. We're not anticipating much, if any accumulation in the valleys. Morning flurries will dissipate Wednesday, with clearing Wednesday afternoon. Wednesday will be pleasant later, with highs in the low 40s once again."
