Subj : weather was: food option To : Nancy Backus From : Barry Martin Date : Wed Aug 14 2019 09:11:00 Hi Nancy! BM>> LIS in an earlier message it's barely gotten into the 80's lately - BM>> but next week.....!! Supposed to get into the 90's and feel like 100ø. NB>> Summer really did hit when it came.... BM> Now July 3rd -- last couple of days has been getting into the mid- and BM> upper 90's with heat indices low 100's. NB> We got that sort of weather the 19th and 20th... heat indices to NB> 110ø all around the region, from Syracuse to Rochester, and NB> including where we were at the Selkirk Shores State Park... NB> definitely not normal, and thankfully short-lived... at least at NB> the campground the breeze made it seem not quite so bad... and I NB> had a/c in the car driving home on the 20th.... Even though I never had to commute for a long distance for work one of the requirements for a car I was purchasing was air conditioning: don't want to begin the work dayy all sweaty and perspiration-soaked clothes! As for your heat wave, glad was short and you had a breeze. BM>> Will do some weeding later today when things dry out a little ==> BM>> have previously weeded but the little nuisances like to grow! Will BM>> wait until the moisture on the weeds dries out so my fingers don't get BM>> get soogy - gloves just don't allow me to get a good grip, etc. NB>> Those pesky weeds do have their tricks to keep you from pulling NB>> them.... ;) BM> Some have a sticky white sap, others are very tenacious. As the BM> 'rule' says, if it comes out easy it's a flower! NB> More'n likely.... ;) I've learned (sort of!) if I'm weeding in an area where it could be a flower or desired plant to leave it and ask. And then sometimes I'll leave a weed on purpose because it looks nice and is in a position where doesn't look out of place. BM> ... Don't plant more garden than you can weed. NB> A nice ideal....
