The bluebonnets are starting to bloom, and two of the peach trees have blossoms. |

Do you do International Drone or Balloon Deliveries?
There is a current Tomato Shortage in the UK.
Vegetables may also be in short supply
like Strawberries.
Energy costs resulted in delays to UK Green house planting
until the summer. |

Its now mid summer, July 19th. You take summer for granted, i saw my posts from march begging summer to heat up and start. Sure fall is fun and the first 3 months of winter but by the time april comes around we're all sick of winter!
Those endless days of summer unfortunately do end eventually, and then its February and march and youd cry for some green grass and dandelions.
So how is everyone fairing in this heat wave? Im in New jersey so we do ok with that up here |

Daily high temperatures for the next 10 days are at 100F or higher. We're under a stage 3 water usage restriction. |

In central Maryland we're experiencing normal summer temperatures - i.e., low 90s most days - but with extra humidity and less predictable rain than usual. It's been like this now for nearly a month without a break.
I'll be in Indiana next week to visit family. It's normally a few degrees cooler there.
Both Maryland and Indiana have had encounters with smoke from the Canadian wildfires. One day, the air quality was so bad here that it was designated as code purple! Until that day, I didn't know there was anything worse than code red! |

Crazy weather, we had some canadian smoke too, a nice yellow shade blanketed the land.... everything was sooo yellow. Of course that would only be during the fall, not mid June
Thats about how new jersey is right now. Humid, little rain but normal temps for this year
fleet you had a heat wave last year in Seattle too right? crazy weather! Most people i heard don't have AC units in the pacific north west because usually they're not needed |

I haven't been in the Pacific northwest in over 15 years. I live in Texas, where we have heat waves every summer.
I think it's been 100 degrees F as the daily high temperature every day this month. |

Which one of our swashbucklers lives in Seatle than? Yes texas is pretty hot every summer. I'd ditch jersey in a heartbeat for a warmer state but i can't stay outside for long with one of my medications im on. Jersey sucks, plain and simple. Over populated, has the most dangerous roads in america, expensive and zero cultural diversity |

North part of Ireland
Generally referred to as "Southern Ireland" even though further north
than the bulk of Northern Ireland
Northern Ireland is generally to as the "North"
as the most northern part is not in N.I.
