| BLUM ROAD IN HEAVY FOG |
Thursday, 8:30 AM. 48.5 degrees, wind SE, light. It is still raining lightly, the sky is overcast and it is foggy, but the barometer predicts partly cloudy skies and with the wind shift we may have a high coming in that will break this spell of wet, cold weather. The big freighter was still moored off Madeline Island yesterday. Could it be Noah’s ark? Actually, it may have just delivered coal to the Ashland power plant. Anyway, we are nowhere near forty days and forty nights of rain, although it feels like it.
The overgrown garden has become quite beautiful with Iris, lilies, poppies, and peonies about to burst into bloom. Clematis are blooming too, and there are still some lilacs. The tomatoes are just sitting here shivering.
Dwarf dogwood, or bunchberry,
Cornus canadensis, are blooming profusely along Blum road, which was enveloped in fog yesterday afternoon.
