At about 6:15 am this morning, my thermometer read 5 degrees. That's cold. It took that kind of a night to finally kill (or at least maim) the artichokes (pictured below) and the chard I had planted earlier this year. The thyme doesn't look like it's been hurt at all.
Our small fountain is pretty but the I'm sure the pump is toast. And lastly, the contorted filbert (Corylus avellana 'Harry Lauder') is really showing off at this time of the year.

I am the Horticulture Agent in Pulaski County KY and the wife of a full-time farmer. My job is interesting but at home it's more interesting -- we raise hot and bell peppers for wholesale markets and mixed vegetables for the Farmers' Market. We also have several acres of strawberries and operate a CSA. Throw in a couple of kids, 2 dogs, 3 cats, and a mess of chickens and that would complete our family.
