S-h- -t, I had to go back out there. Although the high walls protect it from wind, this wind blowing now blew the heavy row cover off one of the big tomato containers. I had a very light weight cover that barely touched the plants, then the heavy cover was resting on part of the plastic ladder on the back of container so it wouldn’t hit the plants. Wind got under it and rolled it back. I had to fix that, if it gets to 30 the tomatoes will freeze and it will be ice as it is most definitely raining.
Got terry robe wet, got socks wet, but got the heavy cover back where it belonged and put a package of something with a little weight to it on top of the cover to hold it down.
That robe is now hanging up to dry, have on another robe and another pair of socks. Should have put on plastic gardening shoes before I went out instead of keeping on house shoes.
Now, I’ve got a glass of amaretto and in 40 minutes will watch Walking Dead.
You must be in terrible condition with a temp so low and this high wind. Sit on top of the electric heater and don’t burn the piano.
Wind at the airport is 17mph, with gusts of 30. Some ice west of us. 33 at the airport, 36 here.
