The rains did come in various waves, and the rain barrel filled completely, so it was easy to fill one jug between the rains. Temperatures hit higher than expected to just above 70°F. Did more inside than out today. Continue reading “Garden Growth–20th April, 2019”

Garden Growth–19th April, 2019
The rain predicted for today was subtly changed to what little rain we did get earlier, though there’s a steady light rain now.

My sweatshirt hanging on a chair by the dining room radiator still isn’t dry, but then again the heat has barely needed to come on today. Another 60°F day.
