mildew-y. I am going nuts. PLEASE SEND ME SOME DRY, SUNNY
DAYS!!!!!!!!!!!



We have had lots of rain too. However, here it is welcome after so many
years of draught. Now our reservoirs are filled after quite a long time
of worrying about using too much water. I really feel for the people
who suffer from flooding as well as those who have too little. Anyway,
the roses seem, to appreciate the coolness and extra water. Best
wishes. MLB


We are still having rain move in two to four times a day. Now we are
having flooding in the south end of the valley and are being warned
about West Nile Virus from mosquitoes. The storms are expected to
continue for another week. I am still trying to be "positive" about it.
When the weather changes, it will probably get HOT. TuTu still is
not asking to go out -- she doesn't like rain. MLB

You can have some of Ohio's, although our dry, sunny days have been
coolish (70s). We need more rain!

If you are where I *think* you are....beautiful valley of SLC where I
have been
and remember the sight of it all apread out before you as you rocket
out of
I-80 and all those awful hairpin turns ( I did have interest in Donner
Pass) to
the SLC nestled in among the mountains smaller than these big suckers
here
which thankfully are not so near us. Water levels here have nourished
the water
reservoirs which is where *we* get our water supplies. A good thing
considering
how dry the usual state is here. Don't worry too much about pig flu
and the
mosquito population increasing. Same happened here and no big epidemic
went
on.....that tick fever is a bigger threat from *our* mosquitos....no
one here gets that
much either if they stay in the cities. I got to get over these
Rockies and come visit
some friends in SLC I haven't seen for a long time now. I saw all the
local tourist
attractions when I was last there and enjoyed them all, except the
Temple, which
I would not invade as an intruder anyway. At least I got to see Moroni
on the top
If I lived where you do, I would not be concerned. Your people take
care of their own.


FYI Yesterday (Saturday) we had a major storm -- a real gully washer
with lightning and thunder. The Angel Moroni on one of their temples
got hit by lightning. It turned the head, one arm and the trumpet
black. My roses were knocked to pieces. MLB

We have had so much rain that my roses are gone for the year. The hail
fixed a lot of things for the summer. We now have had 3 days without rain/
Sprinkled but nothing major. Had to get a de humidifier, house just smelled
musty no matter what I did. I am putting white vinegar in the water I get
and putting it in jugs in the garage, I just know this will stop and burn
things up, what is left anyway.

I hadn't realised you were in the Netherlands, for some reason I assumed you
were in the USA.

What is the purpose of the white vinegar?. I used yo put in 3 0r 4 drops of Clorox
in stored water. Best wishes. MLB

My plants didn't usually like the Clorox, white vinegar does the same thing.
We had the three dyes without rain and it is riming aging. I joked about
buying a pump for removing water from the flower pots. It is 90 today and
with all the water around is really nasty.

I've been busy in RL replacing water heater and accompanying messes.
Sorry about your roses! One of the few flowers that live both here
and
in south FL, sub-tropics. I will google "gully" when I have time,
being
ignorant of what that means.
As for Moroni toop the buldings....lightning heads for the highest
point
in the area...I assume that's well known, LOL. Rained lots here too
but
getting dry again now. I enjoyed the storms while they lasted. Closed
my eyes waiting for the thunder crack and imagined I was back in FL.
Rain in such prpportions rare here. Plant more roses. Betty days ahead.



It is raining again today with some thunder bumpers as well. FYI a
gully is an erosion caused by heavy rain in the side of a hill. In the
summer they can be referred to as dry creek beds. There are lots of
gullys in our ,mountains. When it rains hard and long, we call them
gullywashers.

We have been promised that summer will arrive next week. I, personally
prefer cooler weather. TuTu is sleeping this storm off. Best wishes.
