How many fingers they have to use on an onion? d8-)
Thanks Ed , I needed the laugh . I sometimes get irritated when someone
just has to have the last word ...and the horse was already dead , so quit
with the flogging !
From what I saw, it looked like Ranger and Jon Ball were trying to get
the last word on each other. You were just a foil for Ball to do his
usual tricks.
Been doing some metalworking along with the usual "I'm a farmer now" stuff
. I'll post about that in a little while .
It's time for me to do my metalworking for the day, too. I have to pop
the top on this can of Bud...
Fortunately, on the farming stuff, the 3-1/2 inches of rain we had in
the last 36 hours didn't wash out my tomatoes or peppers. I was
worried but I had forked in enough leaf compost that it really drained
well.

3 1/2 inches in 36 hours, but it still doesn't make up for the shortfall we had all spring. We, all the way up north in Bergen County (all of what, 40 miles from you?) had no significant rain at all for the better part of a month and a half. We're doing our tomatoes in containers this year. Our veggie plot is all basil, kale & arugula. We have a gardening buddy who gets amazing tomato yields, and we swap greens for 'maters.
So yeah, a bit rainy this week, but an absolutely beautiful day today.
If you've ever watched the radar images on NOAA's weather site, you'll
notice that upper Middlesex County, where I live, often is a dividing
line. Sometimes we get your weather, and sometimes we get south Jersey
weather. It's weird -- it can be raining cats and dogs in Bergen, or
even 25 miles away, in NYC, while it's dry as a bone here, and vice
versa.
Anyway, it was not really dry here until two weeks ago, and then we
got the deluge. But I called my old college roomate near Tyler, TX on
Sunday to see if he'd floated away (he lives on a lake) and he said
that his dock was under five feet of water. It could be a lot worse.
