We can have similar temps although CV will get much colder by mid-winter than us. When I checked out inside yesterday it very warm and steamy compared to outside. Many things have stopped blooming, but we still have many green and of course red tomatoes. Our forcasted lows yesterday were scary but today the forecast was a bit moderated with only one 19 instead 3 night in low teens so that'll be nice to get things down outside.
We stopped the bale gardening as we never had a good place to put the 'used' bales. Instead, we've gone to raised beds and we are even growing in large tree pots that we bought from the nursery, and we can use drip irrigation to water them. Pots also allow us to move them into a garage should an early frost threaten. We also don't have buy more bales each year. The concept works nicely, though.
