We welcomed in 2018 on a very cold note! Here in East Texas we are not so used to this prolonged “chilly” weather! We will mention a beautiful flower garden that you all should see and they usually open on Valentines Day!-that is less than 30 days away! Let’s all keep our fingers crossed that by then we will be going into our Spring-like weather. There are things to do in the area that we do not have to be dependent on the normally nice weather we have. Mardi Gras is the day before- Valentine’s Day this year meaning there will be a whirlwind of activity for those two fun events. The biggest thing happening at The Rosevine in the next few weeks is Elvis will be in the house!! So lets get started!!
