Cool, looks like my brackets will be here for the weekend. Gonna be sunny, 75 Saturday and 79 Sunday. It ought to look like a high tunnel frame this weekend.
Today; Mad downpours, hail and a couple of tornado warnings due to rotations in the storms. My boss said his neighbor got 3” of rain in his rain gauge from two quick storms. Storms formed along I-44 just West of where I work and headed to St Louis. Didn’t start raining here until I was probably half way home.
The rain gauge said 0.54 when I got home and it’s at 0.70 now.
Highest wind gust here was 52 mph at 4:43pm. Seven gusts over 30 and four over 40 but most were 20 or less.
Would have been a day to have the tunnel sides close 1/2 to 3/4 of the way for the two hours of gusty wind.
I was just surfing that soup thread you once put up......
the yummy recipes there make your mouth water.....
especially the restaurant potato soup you posted.
We need a repeat thread.
You’ve got a lot to keep track of with all those gizmos. ;)
I spent a good part of the afternoon laying fresh mulch all around my greenhouse garden beds where I grow (easy!) roses and perennial grasses, Sedum and Day Lily. I’m a little sore this evening! ($2.00 a bag on sale - score!)
Also started ‘strategically’ placing tomato cages so I can plot out who goes where and so I don’t OVERDO IT and keep to my allotted 24 plants this season versus growing 32 and nearly killing myself with canning them all! (I’m getting too old for this!)
Got a few more ‘spring things’ planted - Broccoli and more lettuces. Got some Porch Pots planted up - but since we’re tearing the porch apart, they’ll just be ‘Anywhere in the Yard or Garden’ pots this season. ;)
