We, like the rest of New England got some non-sticking snow last night and this morning. Saved the parsley, but lost the tomatoes. Unbelievable.

Ours is sticking and still coming down, but slowing a bit. Now we'll have to suffer through ww, hotwine and Bucko telling us how great it is where they are.

Severely clear and 80F, Chamber of Commerce weather for sure.

What We Need Is Here
Geese appear high over us,
pass, and the sky closes. Abandon,
as in love or sleep, holds
them to their way, clear
in the ancient faith: what we need
is here. And we pray, not
for new earth or heaven, but to be
quiet in heart, and in eye,
clear. What we need is here.
- Wendell Berry

What we need here is somebody to clean up after the **** geese. Sorry, Auburnwine, I couldn't resist. It IS a lovely poem. And it IS my favorite time of year.

What we need here is an end to ALL-TIME record heat. 101 today to establish Agin' the latest 100* day in the whole ever-bloomin' histronics of this whole stately. WW

We got an inch of the stuff. Seems like last winter just ended. Wooly worms are real furry.

I don't like this snow thing--is this what I have to look forward to next week when I return to New York? Ugh!
After today, I will not be online until November--you're sure gonna miss me when I'm gone.
Auburnwine--great poem--always loved Berry's stuff. To live by those words--what we need is here--is to be content.
- ShortWiner - 10-24-2003
No snow here yet, foodie. Chilly, but it's that lovely Autumn in NY chill.
Enjoy the rest of your trip--we will miss you.
- winoweenie - 10-24-2003
Have fun Bubba. Talk to you on your return. ww
- Kcwhippet - 10-24-2003
Later, Dude. See you May 4 with the draft.

- winoweenie - 10-26-2003
My Basil, Thyme, Cilantro, and Rosemary have become monstrous. WW

Sunny, sixties, and the mountains are glowing in the PNW. Makes one feel great to be alive.....

Your surviving patients say the very-same-thing.(giggle,snort,hehe) WW [img]http://www.wines.com/ubb2/wink.gif[/img]

I harvested all my basil yesterday and made pesto. Still have a couple green tomatoes hanging on for dear life.
