that would be similar to our normal weather. Instead of highs near or
over 100 we are trying to reach for 70. Weather is certainly messing
up crops this year. The herbs don't seem to mind much, grasses are
going great guns, lettuce too. The other stuff just isn't happy. I'm
going to test the garden soil this morning and see if it has reached
60 yet so that it is safe to plant beans. Food is going to be very
costly for the next couple of years because of the bad weather year.
