ME fail English? ...that's unpossible.
I see Gary and Carol are back from their trip to the Lavender Festival in Sequim, WA.
Visit seven beautiful Farms on Tour in the stunning Sequim-Dungeness Valley. Growers share their techniques for cultivating, drying and using lavender, and visitors experience the perfume and beauty of this captivating herb. See dozens of varieties with colors and scents from sweet whites to crisp purples, while enjoying the sunshine, mountain views, scented breezes and open spaces of the Sequim-Dungeness Valley.
We got a new source for weather in sunny St. Vital.....a self described 'weather weenie'. He is one of six around the city that update their sites every 10 minute with the local weather, etc. NOW that's exciting! The weather service can update you only after about six hours...typical government. Well, then I guess you can stick you head out the window and ascertain if it is hot, cold, wet or dry pretty quick too! haha During the recent storm on the weekend, the Maples (north end) got 27 mms while the St. Vital area (south end) got 90-110 mms. So there is pockets of heavier rain, as with any storm....hail too.....well its interesting to me.
I may get me one of these weather stations and then I can be a weather weenie too......!
We are going over to Al and Janine's place for dinner. Paul and Pat will be there and Al's daughter René along with her new boyfriend Sui (?)...he's a doctor and he is from the Vancouver area but is currently working in Winnipeg.
Well, better go and get a bottle of vino for tonight. Perhaps a bottle of:
CHÉREAU-CARRÉ Muscadet de Sèvre et Maine Sur Lie Château de la Chesnaie 2004 (87 points)
Bright and crunchy, with lime, floral and chalk notes. Crisp, refreshing finish.
Later, peace.
