I'm happier than i could be.... the summer weather here in southeast WY has been absolutely glorious this year! we had record amounts of rain in June, which helped with the garden and our other plants. (except it did bring the mosquitoes with it). I think it's only gotten up to the 90's once or twice so far. and this week is only in the 70's due to cold fronts passing through.
being originally from arizona, the summer weather here was great to begin with. only a few really hot days. but this is perfect! although, we haven't been having as many cool thunderstorms, that also means decreased chance my garden will be destroyed by hail (like last year).
so, i'm thanking the heavens and hoping i don't jinx myself by praising this wonderful weather.... hoping august won't have overly hot temperatures because it's been perfect the rest of the time.

Sounds wonderful.... things are so dry here in the Southeast at the moment. My garden is parched and I have to put the sprinkler on it every hight for several hours. My cukes are done-for. |

Hi Elizabeth: I'm in SW Louisiana and we have had rain, rain, rain, and expecting more rain. But, after the rain comes the sunshine. I can't wait. Enjoy your WY weather. Marly

We've been getting an unusually cool summer this year with a good amount of rain. As of now, we haven't reached 90 degrees yet...although they're predicting hotter temps at the end of the week. We've been getting some wicked thunderstorms with small tornados in some areas. I think the Northeast has traded the Northwest our typical summers this year! I like it, though. Can't stand heat and humidity!
