But the Weather Channel Said....

I tried so hard to plan my days of transplanting in the garden on days that would be followed by rain, but the Weather Channel let me down.

So one morning I was talking to my dad on the phone explaining that I was going to spend the morning hauling buckets of water over these eight acres to all the bushes I had been transplanting. He told me he could remember doing that for my grandmother. He said they would hook up the mule to a sled holding a five gallon drum of water.  Then he saved the day by suggesting that I could do a modern version of the same principal.

By dipping out of this full trash can, I was able to finish the job tout de suite!!

Until tomorrow,

Shelli

The trouble with weather forecasting is that it’s right too often for us to ignore it

and wrong too often for us to rely on it.
