From overcast skies, torrential rain begain pouring down, followed by sleet and hail, and suddenly, very surprisingly- SNOW fell for just under two hours then...
The skies cleared, and the sun shined upon us, for thirty minutes, anyway. Then, back to overcast skies. Even for here, this was a Sybil-like weather day!
That is the topic, the weather, which has made gardening work outdoors challenging. Those of us die-hard PNW Gardeners, a little rain won't stop us. This led to the work accomplished today...
My friend, Marilyn, came over to do gardening work with me today! Despite cold weather and a bit of drizzling, we enjoyed ourselves, chatting away, while we pulled out weeds, dug up E W Onions, Garlic, and even moved some plants. There was a break for lunch, my homemade hearty chicken soup, served with hot Chai Tea. Afterwards, Marilyn took over the final prepping of the 4th upper main bed, while I worked to plant E W Onions and Elephant Garlic. This work turned out to be more time consuming and challenging than I had anticipated, but thanks to Marilyn, it was also a lot of fun! I also found out, LOL, just how many E W Onions I actuallly have. Way more than I thought, in the hundreds, even after I sent quite a few off with Marilyn. In ending, I am feel very blessed to have a friend like her... This woman literally rocks! No, you can't borrow her.
