Sounds like you are getting the same weather we are getting here. It's
23C/73F here in southern Ontario along the shores of Lake Erie and we are
having our first rain free day in a week. Of course the lawn looks like a
hayfield with the lawn mower being fixed. I don't my think my little
precious'es are ready to be taken out for a walk just yet. I'm so
protective of my little pepper seedlings. Its such a cruel world out there.
Hope you had fun at the party Mike!
