It is so nice right now here in Minnesota. The temperature is way above normal and it's sunny as can be. Our average high right now is 57 and it is 70 right now. So I set my seedlings outside on the table to enjoy the sunshine and warmth. This photo shows most the seedloings I have. I have more inside to set out in a bit. What's the weather doing in your area right now?

It's beautiful here today, thank goodness! In the 70s for us also. We've had an awful lot of rain this year, and I'm tried of it. I know it's good for the soil, and everything, but I have weather headaches so everytime it rains, I'm in pain! I need a few sunny days strung together!

We need some rain as things are so dry right now. There's a recreational fire ban and I love a bonfire at night. Plus my garden and flowers etc need some rain to get the ground ready. Plus my flowers are starting to pop up and need the water as well. Supposed to rain Sunday and I hope it does. At least a little. Otherwise I'll be digging the hoses out and hooking them up for the year.

I am too old for a convertivble.
It would blow my dentures out or take my toupee off.
Hahahaha! I wear neither but still too old for one myself.
I'll stick with my big Buick LeSabre hardtop.

Out here in Manila, Philippines, however, the sun hurts a lot at noon and in the early afternoon. I was out with my wife the other day and I felt dizzy and about to collapse because of the intense heat! My goodness! So now, I make it a point to bring an umbrella for protection against the sun. Yesterday i did just that. I and my wife and mother and kids went out to window shop in a fully air-conditioned mall in Quezon City and we brought along an umbrella--and the trip was fine! No problem!Great to hear from you, Grandpa Bob!

A funny thing, though. In all this terrible heat here in Manila we have downpours now and then, and two guys were even hit by lightning. Must be climate change, huh? Yesterday afternoon, we had dark, heavy rain clouds hovering above us, threatening a downpour, which didn't happen. It was a false alarm!

It is warm here, but very windy. It will blow your hat right off your head, but at least it prevents the weather from being too hot. It is also nice that it is sunny. We have had some rain recently and the clouds have covered the sun quite nicely. So it is pleasant to walk out into the sunlight right now.

It's been raining for the past 2 days in our area and I am sad that my flowers are full of water now in the area where I planted them..I just move them to the soil from my egg box last week and I guess I should have add more soil in the area! I hope they will survive!

It has been cold here,but now it is starting to warm back up again. My husband mowed grass yesterday for the first time this year. The temps today are supposed to be in the lower 70's and I only work a half day so I am excited. I see some ATV riding going on today and I think we will grill out tonight and I think that we might have a bonfire tonight too. I love this weather when it is starting to get warm and we have days like this.
By the way, your seedlings look great!

Well, it was an amazing day where I am too. It was warm, sunny, clear and calm. The high for the day was 16 degrees Celsius which is equal to about 61 degrees Fahrenheit. I have things that I need to do outside in my yards, but that will have to wait until the weekend. Fortunately for me, Friday, Saturday and Sunday are supposed to be very good weather wise. The forecast calls for a high of 19 degrees Celsius or about 66 degrees Fahrenheit tomorrow. Here's to another great day of weather. Cheers.

It was about 70 degrees here today too. I didn't take any of my plants or seedlings outside today, but I did open a few windows to let the fresh air in my house. I hope that Spring is finally here after the last couple of weeks of crazy weather.

We have had really nice weather today and yesterday, but I am off tomorrow and it is supposed to rain. I need a chance to personally soak up the sunshine. It is just not happening.

I wish i could be outside soaking up the sun (started typing smoking up the sun because my dad said he was going for a smoke and i got typing the words he was saying with my words i wasy typing!)
its been raining here since about 11:30 - my dad is burning down buildings that were in need of burning in the farm yard. So the rain is a good thing but i wish it was nicer out.
