Good morning GH.  Well, I can honestly say that the look out the Weather Window this AM has shown mixed results.  The skies are partly cloudy, and the desktop temperature is 75 degrees.  We are anticipating a high of 84 today, and tomorrow shows the promise of thunderstorms and a high temperature in the low 90s according to the folks at Weather.com,  I always wait for the forecast by Sugar the Weather Dog, because she is usually pretty reliable when it comes to thunder events.  Meanwhile, I will have to continue watering our vast gardens on our palatial estate.   I say that tongue in cheek, because our estate is small, and our gardens are manageable.  Still, it is a chance to enjoy being outdoors and communing with what the drought has left of our landscaping.  We are doing well in the garden, the lone cucumber we received from our plant was delicious, and the few tomatoes were likewise tasty.  We are still awaiting our first harvest from our green pepper plants, so I won't have anything to report until later in the summer.  I think our cucumbers would be more prolific if the daily temperatures weren't so high.  No amount of watering can compensate for that.  Of course, there is always the chance that the plants will start to produce at a greater frequency, once the weather improves.  Otherwise, it is now officially...Tea time.
