Good early morning GH.  I got up early to see the meteor shower, but I didn't see it.  Maybe I just didn't know where to look.  Not much to see out the Weather Window, but that's to be expected at 3:45 AM.  Sugar the Weather Dog has been a little weird tonight, but that seems to be something that she does periodically.  She had a strong desire to be in the bathroom this afternoon, we just don't know why.  After Friday's torrential rains, I was happy that Saturday was a bit drier.  The beauty is that it was also cooler than it has been recently.  Right now, the temperature on the desktop is showing a brisk 62 degrees.  I like it.  Our garden is liking the rain, as we are suddenly getting more cucumbers than ever.  They seem to need the rain.  Cucumber salad, here we come.  Tomatoes seem to be nearing their end, and the peppers are ripening without getting bigger.  I think that their growth was stifled by the heat.  Peppers usually like the heat, but perhaps, they didn't like the hanging basket we had them in.  I think that next year we are going to grow them in pots on the ground.  We just have to be sure to get clean soil that has not been tainted by lead paint or chemicals.  Once again, we live and learn.  Mary gave me the day off, and that means that I can do whatever I want.  I am thinking a bike ride after I walk Sugar the Weather Dog.  Otherwise, I have been asked to not play my music, as it can be a bit of a distraction.  So, that means a bit of reading, a bit of race watching, and perhaps some headphone listening to music.  I'm okay with that.  So, until Chris comes on with his UP show and I have...Tea time, it is time for me to say adios.
