It's Like A Heat Wave
So sang Martha and The Vandellas. I've always wondered what a Vandella is - maybe a name. Let's get back on the subject - the heat. It has been like the dog days of summer here in northern Ohio yet it is still officially spring. Temperatures in the high 80's and low 90's for many days. My grass needs cutting but I can't stand to think about doing that until nearly sunset. This heat stresses the garden. Most of the things we grow here in this part of the country can take the heat for a little while, but not for an extended period without showing signs of strain. Hopefully, the heat wave will break soon and we can get back to more pleasant temperatures.
