    Good morning everyone, sunshine and a perfect day greeted us for our morning coffee. More gardening in store for today, not all the beds are weeded. Then again I think the weeds wait till I'm gone to pop their heads up.

    Morning all. Got some seeds planted out front, I figure we have at least 3-5 more months of summer no matter what the calendar says, there are empty spaces in the garden where some spring bulbs never poked their heads above ground and I have seeds...worth a shot. I planted Hopi Dye Sunflower, 4 o'clocks and am trying to get Moonflower Vines started at least once this season!!

    Other than that we are heading up to 103 again today same as yesterday and day before...with the humidity it has been felling like 110 out there.

    Good morning everyone, the morning and evening activities should be fun, in the afternoon it's hide from the sun. The lawn gets a haircut this morning.

    Happy Saturday morning. We got 1.25 inches of rain yesterday and another 0.25 overnight. woohoo!!
    Today is still overcast with a 50% chance of rain.
    I love the sun, but sure is a nice break to have total cloud cover... plus it will keep the temps out of the 100s today.
    So... my plans for the day. Pay bills. Go into town to do the shopping. Fertilize the fruit trees. And hopefully sit back and watch it rain.

    Good morning all. It reached 107f/42c here yesterday :eek: I am so sick and tired of this heat, 15 days in a row over 100 and no relief in the forecast.

    Netty, we are on day 24 with no rain. There are cracks in the ground that are at least 8 inches deep, some almost 3 inches wide.

    Good Sunday morning all. Currently 20°C and sunny. It is only 8am so I know this day is going to be a HOT one!
    We are headed to the family cottage today for a day of family, food, swimming and fun. And more cake :)
    Still celebrating my daughters 8th birthday and I'm willing to bet that Oma has made more than one cake.
    Have a great day all!

    Happy Sunday morning. The sun is out shining bright and it's going to be another hot and muggy day.
    Did enjoy the 2 inches of rain yesterday! Even kept me inside long enough to clean the house! :D
    Nothing really planned for the day.
