Leaves a gas for others to suck up ... such is the hard to grasp power of recirculation that feeds the vegetation ... it'll get to you if laid out there --- What's-his' names daughter" the unnamed? What a mystery ... and nobody knew ...

Somebody had to create a place for the great unspeakable! Why truth is so difficult ... we replaced it with a story of considerable curiosity! WHAAAA ...
 
Rough night due to heat :P Outside at 4:35 AM and spent an hour planting peas, beans, cucumbers (seedlings), pattypan squash, cantaloupe/honeydew/watermelon (seedlings), some petunias, pumpkin, sunflowers, and a few mystery seeds from Dad's collection. I still have flowers to plant in planters but that will have to wait as it was rather hot/humid even at that time!

Paper sent off to press and I can go back to bed now

Am sorry to hear you had a rough night. Can't imagine anyone else here has had a rougher night due to heat than I have. Hope you did get some rest

Always somewhat more than everyone else ... resembles some brute leaders ... wires with hooks on the end ... tree hangers?

Jousts are the norm ... be sharp about them for the great jerk out of the pool ...
 
Cool and damp here and predicted for next few days. Good weather for a plant sale; not so great for a neighbourhood block party, planned for the afternoon.
 
It all started on a stormy-stormy night ... what? said ONE the END said the initiator ... and they went on ... space is like that empty hollow and hungry for everything ... expansive! Thus gluts ... sometimes appearing as gaps in the alternate ... defects in the other always stand out first before we look at all that's left ... an enigma ... dark and mysterious ... unresolved ... extensive if not in tent! Dry drifters ... desiccation is on the wind ...
 
Nice here right now but chance of showers or a t-storm in the evening or overnight.

I actually enjoy a good storm

My son was obsessed with meteorology in the last couple years of high school. Was even thinking of it as a career. When a storm front was rolling in, he would monitor it on radar and watch out the window (or even go out on the deck) to watch it coming in.

Sounds like my one granddaughter, since she was little....although she is scared of tornados.

I think that's what mostly freaks me out about storms. I like the light shows but I've seen the aftermath of tornadoes and heard my brother's account of when one went through our lake just South of our cottage so, yeah, kind of scared for that reason.
 
I love watching a good lightning storm. LAST night's storm ended up circling right around us - though we still experienced massive wind, just enough rain to dampen the sidewalk, and lots of thunder (no lightning). Interestingly, the only storm I wasn't watching from the solarium was the evening in 2015 when 3 baseball-sized hail crashed through the solarium roof - I'd have been hit for sure if I'd be out there. Cold-core funnels are fun to watch over Buffalo Lake east of me - unlike tornadoes, they rarely touch down.

Just ran a rhubarb scone out to the garbageman and now I'm going back to bed - between the heat and gardening, I think I really overstressed my body this week :P
 
For years I was told we were safe in a car during a lightening storm because the tires on the car were said to ground you.....turns out its not true.

The version I heard is that it's because current stays on the outside of the body so you're safe inside as long as you don't touch any metal with a connection to outside. Of course, these days with more and more carbon fibre and other composites going into car bodies, not sure that would work anymore. And Lord knows what it would do to all the electronics in a modern car.
