    Morning all. Just another summer day here again......STILL. Might be a touch of fall for us in about two weeks :rolleyes: Going into the 90's today.

    Going down to Randy's folks today, his Mom had the first cataract removed this week the second will be done in a few weeks. She didn't feel like having company on the day but is ready for some now.

    Good Morning. Cool this morning,73 but will go up to 88 or 90, depending on who you listen to the newspaper or radio. No special day plans but plan on going to the Candlelight Tour at New Salem State Park tonight. Have a good day. Wannabe

    Good morning/afternoon Stewbies, rise and shine all bright-eyed and bushy tailed. A beautiful day (yet again) here in Malmö, not the warmest but very still.

    Good Saturday morning from the North Woods. Gloomy and raining this morning. We are fast making up for the lack of rain this summer. According to our rain gauge, we have been getting 3 to 5 inches a week for the last 2 weeks. I'm not sure how bright eyed and bushy tailed, I feel Frank, the fog clouds and rain need to be overcome. A spot of sun could do wonders. It's an indoor day I think.

    Good Morning. Sunny and mid 70's today and up to 92 this afternoon, and I am going to a weiner roast tonight. Usually that means jeans and sweatshirt and sometimes a coat. Guess that doesn't apply today. Wannabe

    Good morning all, 10 deg C, lots of rain and wind, and we're doing "dugnad" this weekend. We're insulating water pipes in the stable, and closing the half doors in preparation of winter. Wish I didn't have to go out in this.

    Morning everybody

    I think we are heading back towards winter instead of spring here in South Africa. Cape Town is a cold 11 degrees celsius. That is pretyy low for this time of the year as we normally experience those low temperatures in May going in to June.

    I am forced to stay ondoors and cannot continue with my dethatching - alas. however, every cloud has a silver lining (or so thy say) and this will give me some more time to spend with my children.

    have a good day everyone.

    A very good afternoon all at GardenStew. While I'd much rather have the view that Tom posted yesterday I'm still pretty happy with the view outside my window today - another beautiful sunny day.

    Morning all. 'nuther summer day in north Texas .....ssssshhhhh, don't let on I told you cause I don't want to jinx it, but the forecast for the end of this week includes temps in the low 60's nighttime and low 80's daytime. I don't want to actually say that the season that starts with "F" is coming, cause Mother Nature can have a perverse sense of humor and change things in a split second.

    Randy and I went junkin' yesterday and got some really cool stuff. I will post pictures later.

    Good Sunday morning to everyone. another pretty day here in upper michigan. The leaves with their fall colors of reds and orange and yellows. But they say we have rain on the way, if so, that'll give me a chance to get inside things done. Blanching the beans from the garden, pickling and oh don't forget the zucchini-we'll use that for bread this winter. Have a good day everyone.

    Good Sunday morning all. We had nasty thunderstorms yesterday and more rain fell then we had all summer. We went over to my parents yesterday for our Thanksgiving turkey (Canadian Thanksgiving is tomorrow). I wore shorts and sandals because it was so warm. I can't remember it ever being so warm this time of year!
    It's another wet day today, but quite warm and the weatherman promises warm weather to the end of the week.
    I'm cleaning the house today for tomorrow I'm spending my holiday out in the gardens!
    Have a great day all :)

    Good Morning. In the 80's here today and tomorrow and then cooler. I don't do heat well and I am really looking for fall. I didn't get to the weiner roast last night as I got sick but am sure sorry I missed it. My husband says to drivean hour and a half for a burned hotdog was to much anyway. Have a great day.

    Good morning! I've been cleaning house and getting ready for fall. It's cool here today. It was still only in the low 50's at ten am. I need to think about bring plants inside. dooley

    Good Sunday morning/afternoon, from the North Woods. Unbelievable weather here, over night low last night 69°, and over 80°just now. Normally by this time, we have had a couple snows, of a couple inches or more each, not so this fall. Mimi is the brave one, she went in for a swim today. Most unusual, I took some pictures to mark the occasion. I worked up a good sweat cleaning up the falling leaves, came inside to cool down. The colors are fast leaving us for those south of here. I hope they get as much enjoyment as we did.

    Good morning everyone. It's far too early to be up. :p 5 o'clock to be precise. It takes me an hour to get to school though, one down fall of not living on campus.
    Anyway, suppose to be kinda rainy today, but with a high being in the 80's, so we'll see.
    Hope you all have a wonderful day!
