Rain, Rain Go Away; Come Again Another Day.
This has really been a weird summer as far as weather is concerned. Very hot and dry and then periods of heavy rain and at the end of the summer the climax was Hurricane Florence!
Record amounts of rainfall here in North Carolina along with high, damaging winds. We were lucky and only had one large tree limb fall. Of course it did minor damage to our storage shed and took down the main power line to our house. Two days with no electricity! However, that is nothing compared to what happened closer to the coast in North Carolina. Major storm damage from winds and flooding in those areas.
Our garden this year was a flop due to weather. Usually we have more tomatoes then we know what to do with. This year only a small crop of cherry tomatoes. We did have some lettuce, cucumbers, peppers and potatoes but nothing like the usual abundance of veggies. Very disappointing this year thanks to mother nature! Here's hoping next year will be better.
