Baby it's cold outside

The Editor from Te Kowhai Newsletter

When we were kids growing up in Whangarei, very, very occasionally, we'd get a frost and the grass would crunch under our feet when we walked to school. If we were lucky we could crack the frozen top off a puddle.

Is it THAT cold here yet?

Send in your winter photographs to tekowhainews@gmail.com OR attach them here in the comments of this post. It could be a photo of a place, people or property but it needs to be local to Te Kowhai.

Icicles hanging off your garage gutter? Great! Snap a pic and send it in.

I'll make sure your winter pics make it into the inside front cover of your local magazine: Te Kowhai News.
