The Monsoon Ends

 The rain gauge says it all.  In the last week of the West Kootenay Monsoon, this is what was collected by the trusty rain gauge.  That week marked the end of at least a month of cool, cloudy, foggy, rainy weather and left garden plants shivering in their beds.  I resolve to double the size of the greenhouse for next year.


We've now had a few days of hot, sunny weather and already things are drying out.  Won't be surprised to see burning restrictions in place soon.  The cool weather has left a huge amount of snow higher up in the mountains so it may be weeks before we can hike and travel up there.
