Weather in Your Garden # 98

Eastern Long Island, NY(Zone 7a)

In that case it should be a night to remember. (lol!)

Jersey Shore, NJ(Zone 7a)

Too much sun will cause damage. Jen, did someone tell you that it is the sunscreen that causes skin cancer? Bull....

Yep, WC, funny how some segments of society took thousands of years for their skin to adapt to constant sun exposure, but descendents of northern europeans think they can adapt in one floridian season....as a teen I had a smattering of freckles across my nose, now I have age spots. It wasn't the sunscreen I didn't use.

I used to feel so bad for those young girls with orange/ leather skin less than 25 yrs old..
unfortunately it's like fashion, even though it's bad for you, you still do it to fit in to a dysfunctional 'click'.
(like 6 inch heels..)

Lower Hudson Valley, NY(Zone 6b)

And aside from cancer, it causes wrinkles and 'beaten up' looking skin. If you smoke, even worse!

Jersey Shore, NJ(Zone 7a)

I was a certified beach bunnie in my younger years, but I was not the girl lathered up in oil sprawled on the beach, I was in the ocean swimming for as long as possible. I'm not sure if that was good or bad....but let me tell you about the 6 inch heels......they hurt. Not when you're walking, it's when you're sitting....figure that one out! But at least these days, they put a little platform on the front so you're not pitched forward at a 90º angle. I had a pair on the other day at work and sooooo many people came over to comment how great I looked..........and what GREAT shoes......I came to the conclusion that to great promoted, it's not the work that counts, it's the shoes.

High heal shoes is like taking a meat tenderizer to your feet. I have got more sun then the most Native South Americans in the Jungle!

great day today - cool with sun - went on the annual garden tour in Concord, MA - pretty disappointing - only two homes deserved to be seen at best

Mid-Hudson Valley, NY(Zone 5b)

We had the world's best weather on Friday. Didn't want to blow the whistle and bring the kids in. Last night was almost cold. This morning was pleasantly cool and breezy which was great because it was my field day at the farm project but tonight it's overcast and humid. Only 68 degrees though. Tomorrow's my day outside. It better not rain.

Lower Hudson Valley, NY(Zone 6b)

Hate to tell you...

Mid-Hudson Valley, NY(Zone 5b)

I'm stomping my foot! Oh well, perhaps a shower in the evening just to settle in my new plantings and keep me from having to water the school garden. I could accept that.

South Hamilton, MA

No rain predicted here until Mon. We have a block in place. Comfortable working outside this afternoon--weed, weed. My shoulder isn't comfortable even using both hands to pull. Have to use my tool right handed.

Perfect weather here for me! Same temps as Pixie....so happy to be out of the Florida heat and humidity! Love being back up here!!! Had a wonderful garden day and then sat on the front porch at dusk listening to the most beautiful concert of songbirds. Deeeeelightful!!!
