Someone made the comment yesterday about the strange cool weather.
I said it isn't strange this is what it is supposed to be like. We have had early hot weather for so long we have gotten used to it. Worth |

Brrr. I'm ready. Starting to pack. At least the fishery has extended to some extra
weekends starting i think July 1st. Let me know if you need anything hard to come by....stopping at a Nursery friday that has over a hundred seed supplier racks. Some not even on-line. (commercial only) |

Oakley are you coming soon then? I heard Bonavista area is still socked in with pack ice, no more than a week ago I thought.
![]() Brrrr indeed! ![]() If you want any perennial herbs for your Bonavista garden, send me a PM when you're in the St. John's area. Tons of hardy stuff here in my garden, and it's soooo early spring - easy transplant time, perfect! ![]() |

A cool 45f this morning with bluebird skies and 80f for this afternoon. This morning will be spent fertilizing the garden and general tending the flock. If I thought it wouldn't kill them I would even sing them a few songs. I love days I don't have to work.

![]() ![]() My personal long term forecast, expect a frosty night or two in the last week of June, and then a blast of heat around the first week of July. Whether the 'summer' lasts two days or two weeks, I cannot say. But that's all I really expect of it. So ironic, by the time I developed a tomato that can put up with this nonsense, Greenland will have finished melting, and then we'll be hot as blazes like everybody else. ![]() ![]() Actually, all we need for some decent weather is the ol prevailing SW winds of a normal summer of yore, to blow the ice away and bring us some of the southern weather trends. |

Our Level D3 drought took a nice hit here in SE Georgia yesterday. 2.64" of rain since Sat nite. Got a much needed soaking.

![]() Animals, OTOH, will flee as fast as they can. If you get up at night and tune up the pipes in the back yard, you will keep the deer away. Beware gunfire from the neighbors, though. ![]()

Oh, I do not care for that type of weather, especially at this time of year, LOL. Not scared, but it makes me watchful. We got between 3.42 to 5 inches the other day and it was going on past us so that was good, but it sure was heavy here at the house. I get watchful when we get rotation and the bad cells coming through. |

I am glad to hear some of you who are needing rain have gotten a fair amount. It doesn't sound like it was enough to relieve the drought, but it's a start. We have had an abundance of rain this spring and everything is super green.
