Brisk south breezes Saturday the 20th with some clouds, a high of 67, a low of 48. Possible showers Sunday the 21st with a stiff SSW breeze, a high of 68, a low of 50.  Partly cloudy the week of the 22ed with westerly breezes, some showers, highs in the low seventies, lows in the low fifties.

     Another sunny day.  We do appreciate the sun after such a long spell of rain.  The constant breeze is drying out exposed soil.  And sunny days mean even more watering in the greenhouse.  Bekah added some hydrangeas requested by customers to Friday's order.  Their request came just in time, no more deliverie after Friday.  We are getting more Coast of Maine today.  Jay planted peas.

      Some flowers go out on the display benches today.  There are too many for us to harden off by moving them out for a few hours every day until they are used to the strong breezes.  So they will be wrapped in remay for a few days. How many days depends on how breezey it is.  The remay will protect the flowers enough to harden them off.

      I will start planting my flowers.  They will also be covered with remay.  As soon as there is room in my little greenhouse I will move my geraniums and the church's geraniums into it.  When I open it up it is pretty breezy inside.  Plus the sun is stronger in the greenhouse than under lights.

      Hummingbirds are out at the greenhouse.  They aren't at my feeders yet.  all the flowers must be attracting them to the greenhouse.  The blossoms on the horse chestnut are still tightly closed.

      May God bless you on this day, Sally
