| I'm getting webbed feet
Can someone remind me what the sun looks like? Outside my window I see rain falling -surprise surprise. 4.25 inches of rain has fallen in Worcester this month. That's a record amount and it's only the 21st. The word rain is in the forecast for all the remaining days of June.
What do you think? Will the month end with 5 inches of rain?
Have the EPN folks sent this rain in retaliation for the snow we gave them last winter? |

My tomato plants are going to hell... too wet for them. 
I think I am turning into a mold spore.

Yesterday alone we got 3 inches... not to mention all the other rain we got this month....
Lets hope July is better. |

| Pollen turned to mold/moss here. My lawn, which I don't encourage to grow, has. Empty motel, so free swim tonight.

Cape Cod Quahog: 11½ weeks of sunshine?
BOURNE — The Cape Cod Quahog didn't need its shadow to predict three months of sunshine — and it didn't need the sun, either.
With rain falling, about 30 Cape residents and business leaders celebrated the first day of summer yesterday at the first Cape Cod Quahog Day, a summer-themed event at the Quahog Republic Waterfront Eatery in Bourne.

Actually, I'm quite enjoying it  ) My tomato plants aren't doing as well as they should but I *do* have two of the tiniest little cherry tomatoes that are about 1/8" across - my first, and nine more flowers in various stages I also harvested my basil and dill yesterday. My peas are growing like weeds but no pods yet.

My tomato plants are going to hell. As are some other plants. I am SOOOOO not happy. I've spent over 250 dollars on plants, so far. For what? To watch them rot in all the rain.....  |

I don't want to scare anyone, but I just looked outside, and there is a very bright object in the sky, surrounded by blue, and there appears to be shade under the trees.
I think it may be some kind of hallucination brought on by endless days of rain.

Hit 80°, mowed lawn, de-weededed the gahden, trimmed a couple trees while so motivated.
I LOVE the tourists! Fresh faces, every out of state license plate reads "IAM-$$$".
Work wasn't bad: shuffled papers/looked busy till boss left, had a swim, a bite to eat, made some reservations, took some reservations, watched baseball game, cashed out and headed home @ 11:05. |

We got a blast of sun yesterday afternoon too, and thunderstorms rolled through about 5:00 this morning. It's a bright overcast right now and the forecast is for cloudy/rain for the next week. I hope it clears up for the fireworks next week.

| Looks like the sun is out now, but it's not really strong yet. There's a light cloud cover that's diffusing it nicely. I'm going to go see if my plants reacted to yesterday
