Yup, they are. I just wish it would dry up. I can't remember a wetter June for where I am.

So, what happened to that long term forecast predicting a terrible fire season? Did they change it? Or is a very dry July and August still in the cards?

We have had terrible fire seasons because of late, wet springs (causing a lot of vegetative growth) followed by very hot dry late summers, so I can imagine a bad fire season, even with a very wet spring.

Just wondering!

Hubby decided that he didn't like the gap between the plywood patch and the plaster wall, so hubby and I filled it in with plaster (where the gap was large) and silicone caulk (where the gap was small) and I reprimed the work.

That's where I stop for now with garage-work. DD will have to help him mount the workbench .... I have too many other things to do.

But it DOES look great, tho!

There are fires burning up in the Interior inspite of lots of rain. Some of those fires are probably caused by lighting strikes. Been a lot of lighting up the Interior. So that is never good. I haven't heard of any evacuations due to fire. Flooding yes. But not fire so far. Will have to wait and see what July and August bring.

No worries. Like I said will have to wait and see.

Ran into the lady who runs the mah jong group and I told her that some of the exercise classes are up and running at the senior centre. She didn't know but then she has a lot on her plate right now. Her husband has cancer.

So, I don't know if she will keep running it or turn it over to her second.

Wondering if I should call the centre and see what is happening about the cards and mah jong.

Cancer?Yes, I imagine that culd occupy her thoughts.

I hope herhusband's treatment is successful and that he does well.

In the meantime, I hope that she DOES pass along her Mah Jong duties tothe next person in line.

I knew there was a reason why I planted so much basil!

I made Thai red curry and stir-fry pork with shirataki noodles, and I was able to harvest a giant handful for the curry and another giant handful for the pork!
