4/21/2015 7:45 AM 0.04 M M M M We have sun and light winds. Yesterday, I walked my neighbor's dog around the neighborhood late morning when the winds were gusting. While passing under a tree, a branch (4.5' long, 1.5" diameter, 10 lbs) fell just two feet in front of me. I was unhurt, but shaken. Lesson learned.

4/27/2015 8:00 AM T M M M M Trace is from heavy dew. The cold winter did nothing to dent the vole population. Tomato plants weren't in the ground 48 hours when one of Satan's little minions drug a mature plant down its tunnel leaving the top half of the plant hanging out the tunnel to wither. This is war.
