I notice that some of you live in the Pacific Northwest, as I do..............are you having any summer weather? It is just like winter rain although the air is warmer by a bit. We get this all other 3 seasons as a norm, but couldn't we have at least July/August sun???? I am going to shrivel up like a prune! UUGGHH!

It has been drizzling here for 2 days, cool and cloudy. Supposed to get hot and humid again this next week. But I must say, it is chilly here....

We started out with some nice weather... and then poof!! it was gone...
Yes, I think summer has passed us by... or maybe just a long delay? :D:D:D

Maybe to help out the city of Seattle, they can start selling "Sunless in Seattle" items instead of adding tolls? ROFLMBO
It may work... "Sleepless in Seattle" was a big hit 8-)

Portland has seen not many real summer days yet but the rain gave us a few days off before coming back in the next few days. I must say my garden has never been happier.

Good news I dont have to water the veggies, Bad news Veggie plants cant swim... :(

Yep, mother nature is playing name the weather every 10 minutes today, its been in the 50's, 60's and low 70's today with drizzle, sun, rain, sun, wind and hail, sun, rain, wind and sun, dark scary clouds, and right now its sunny, kinda. The ONLY thing I have seen today is snow.

I WANT SUMMER!!!! I want my veggies to grow! I want a tomatoe before September!

After a long, cool and wet spring, we are having a great summer. It has been pleasant and sunny. This week-end and next week is to be hot and humid. My flowers are the nicest I can remember! Hope you soon enjoy some summer sun and veggies!
