I just hope buds don't decide to come out and we get -28C again. We've had so little precipitation all year. I can't remember the last good rainfall we had. ... Does anyone here know a good rain dance? [icon_lol2.gif]
I do, actually.

QK - time for you to have another yard sale! :laugh:

If the temps keep this mild I'll be able to on January 27th.
Regardless of who "wins" an election, they always are up against a Silent Elite. Do you believe the extreme poor who voted for Trump ever thought their non-profit support would be slashed right out from under them?

Thanks but I said rain dance, not fog dance!

Is it too late to plant garlic? :laugh:

I watered a couple of outside plants today. Normally they would be dead by this time of year.
I'm old enough to remember when Plastic bags were the solution to the destruction of trees!

I have successfully managed to kill off most of my back yard grass and replace with weeds.

No need to cut. :200:

I haven’t seen such a downpour in Vernon!
Sufficiently advanced incompetence is indistinguishable from malice. There’s a certain point at which ignorance becomes malice, at which there is simply no way to become THAT ignorant except deliberately and maliciously.
