Re: Rumours and dreams
Andrew I think its great if you have one that size.....just surprised
considering the poor summer here in Ontario.....the rest of us have been
struggling with to much rain and now cool temps......hope you can last to
October......you could have a new record and that would be great......as for
my comment thats all it is......you have done a great job to be at that
size....my night time lows this last week have been in the low 8's....so I
would love to trade areas right now.........keep it up Ontario needs a few
more biggies.........wayne
