Re: good morning/weather

Well, Ceres, I didn't even begin gardening til I was almost 40, so I don't
know any different. But I suppose it may be true for some.  I think that
since I started so late, I am still open to other activities.   Personally,
I don't have a big rush in fall and just a bit of a rush in spring because
of MG activities too.  These are the times I typically take vacation, so as
long as the weather cooperates, I just take the time I need.  Yes it is
busier during these times, but a welcome busyness.  And, right, I wouldn't
want to be busy like that all the time.  You're right about storage, too, it
can get pretty tight with 3 hosereels, chipper/shredder, lawnmower, tiller,
and all the paraphanelia crammed into the garage.  I think I'm just used to
marked seasons and as autumn moves into holiday and then onto winter, I look
forward to March and getting started again.  Summer is a tme to hide for me.
On a really hot day in the sun, I can feel my skin sizzling, I know what
damage to expect.  If I lived where Noreen and Pam do, I would probably do
LESS gardening.
