The west is in a heat ghetto, and that's all anybody can write about. The rest of us have cold gloom. At the cottage we survived the huge thunderstorms but all the action was high up. We had those 5 km long lightning flashes at 20,000 feet, because the thunder rumbled for a long time. About 4 inches of rain, which will be good up here. They were draining the lake more for the Trent Canal because of the general drought. I think all this rain might stop that for a while.
With happy news, we have the oak trees putting out new leaves. They have evolved with this sort of thing. All the stored energy for acorns will go to new leaves. Can't wait to see what the pine trees will do. Our potato leaves were never touched.
