It's 74 at 10:30 today and due to be a lot hotter as the day progresses. They're getting a lot of mileage out of the forecasts these days, it might hit 100 on Sunday. or not. I doubt it will be that hot here in Hawkeye, we're usually 5 degrees cooler than the Champlain Valley, which is where most of the forecasting is done. But still...that's mighty warm and I guess this "warm spell" is supposed to last well into next week and maybe beyond.
We had a nice rainy day yesterday, I liked that because it meant my plants all got good soakings. I've got some tomato plants that were given to me, some are in pots and some are in the ground and they're doing well, have lots of blossoms. I also have one pepper plant with peppers on it, that's different for me, I don't usually grow peppers but someone gave me the plant. My flowers are doing well but are in need of deadheading. I'll try to do that today. Other things I'll try to do today: clean my shower and the upstairs bathroom (yuck), take stuff down to the boat house and swim the dogs while I'm there, tidy up the boat house a little bit, rearrange the fridge there so there will be room for other people's food. Jenica and her family are coming tomorrow so that will be nice. Lot's of library talk maybe, Jen and I like talking to each other about our chosen profession. I will probably sleep in the boat house tonight especially if it's as hot as threatened.
I've had a good few days. Went to work yesterday, that was fine. We scanned family photos from 1901-1905 and they reminded me of the Rogers family images. That was kind of sweet.
Last night I went to the Beach House for dinner with friends, more friends showed up while we were there. It was as it always is, food is OK, beer is good, people are nice. Let the season begin!
