It helps to have line of sight to the ocean and no mountain range blocking the ocean influenced weather.

Oregon could have been designed better.

Your weather is warmer then mine. And I'm some thousand miles south.

Is this what happens before magnetic pole reversal?

Moi

yep

oregons weather is in three steps

coast ...valley..high desert

What about those Oregonian mountain ranges?

The eastern side of the State could sure use some Fresh Water from the Frozen north.

My only disappointment with James Knox Polk's presidency is he did not stay firm on the promise

54'40" or fight.

sduyck_2000 that water up north is yours by Manifest Destiny.

What part of Manifest Destiny don't you understand.

The Lord placed water up north for the future needs of the Great American Nation.

It was Manifested before any 49th parallel.

We need only recognize the Destiny determined at the Creation planned for us in this time.

Can it be any more plain?

Truly, James Knox Polk is my Number 1 favorite President.

An over looked extremely effectual one term President.

Although I do not think I can tap the Spirit of Bob3 to write Bob-esquely

How did I do explaining Manifest Destiny?

It reads to me like anything I have read from that great era in America's past.

Moi

FREEDOM and Our Water too

PS My weather is very nice. Topically (not tropically) speaking.

Hey, moi,

Let me take a stab at Manifest Destiny.

Manifest Destiny was the product of the Christian justification of the westward expansion of America. Basically, it was from 1820 to 1860 at the start of the Civil War. At some point there was also a movement within it to take charge of the northern hemisphere of the Americas, I believe, which never appeared, except for a few notable exceptions.

The whole expansion thing ended with the so-called "Steward's Folly" in which we bought the rights to Alaska from Russia. That was about the end of the idea, and the expansion.

THEY keep saying the muggy, tropical monsoon weather is coming back.

No sign of it yet. Maybe another oopsy or a lie by the UnConstitutional Federal weather service.

One of two grafted, over priced, hairloom beefsteak tomatoes making fruit.

The last of the blackberries ripen with the first of the Mission Figs. The Fuji apples get bigger but, will not be sweet before late Autumn if that soon. The White Onions are strong, not sweet, and yummy.

I think I killed two apple trees trying to transplant them. Just first year seedlings I sprouted.

Moi

maybe the drought is finally going to end...the forecast looks much better now monsoon moisture is getting caught in the flow

http://www.accuweather.com/en/weather-n ... ntra/68661

the hot spell in the 30s was much worse than what the Midwest is having now

http://wattsupwiththat.com/2012/07/14/n ... e-weather/

That "tropical moisture" has not made it west of the

California deserts this year and only delivered spotty moisture

although "they" put out their warnings and alerts.

And the rain certainly does not go as far north as you.

Has it?

Fresh Carrots and potent white onions.

Salty ocean breeze earlier today.

They say the monsoon is a comin' with it's hot, humid, stinky air.

Hopefully the marine effect with defend me from this one.

Sugar Pie Pumpkins are sprouting. Wow, that was fast.

Moi

98F and humid here today. Sunny.

Storms in the evening, they split and we got NOTHING, as usual. Once again, Indianapolis got rain.



I figure I won't have a garden left when I get back from the MOM.

Oh well.

I picked what I could tonight.

I think the squash will survive it, though....maybe.
