Luckily, we shut off the outside pipes, but have been keeping an eye on things. We ran the heater in the garage for a while last night, it is not insulated and my flowering plants are in there. DH said the tap water was slushy this morning! "Homer" the frog that lives in one of my plants in the garage has been awful quiet lately, lol!!
This is as cold as it's been for years and has broken several records for the area (Willamette Valley). I'm originally from ND so it is not as startling to me as it is to the natives.
