I should never rake on a windy day

[momofdrew]

Which I did today...the weather just wont cooperate....it has been rainy and raw all week and the sun came out today but had high winds... I need to get my raking done before I can build a new garden in front of my lilacs...which I want to have done before the plants I want to transplant there get too big...so I raked and the wind blew them all right back along the fence line...The chickens loved it anyway...so I guess it is a good thing...

It was very windy here too. Today I was planting spinach and broccoli rabe and the seed packets were flying everywhere!
Sometimes the weather just won't cooperate, but you try anyway.

i took today and tomorrow off as personal days from work and i've been disappointed that i couldn't get to digging the forsythia bush out to move it to a new location! my coops need cleaning and i was afraid the shavings and dust would just go everywhere but the garden!

my trash bin and toter took a slight walk away from where they normally are kept outside! the wind was so strong that they were 2 feet away from their spots! here's hoping weather.com has it right and tomorrow won't be windy like today!

We just had straight DOWN pours here today... so I got a lot done on TEG anyways!

I tried to outrun the rain and left here at 10am to get a yard of black mulch, right as I hit the neighborhood entry the sky opened up. Oh well....

Today was just an ick day for everyone I suppose.

About 3 weeks ago, I bought a garden blower/vac/mulcher gadget, and I have not been able to use it yet.

We have had a lovely strong breeze ever since, the leaves go everywhere, but where you want them.

Soon maybe soon.
