Ponding Water

Swooooosh!
May 2015 was our warmest May here in Southern Maine on record, at a hair under 59°F for an average daily temperature. We did dip into the 50s° a few days, but most of the time the mercury behaved itself and stayed mid 60s°. We even hit 91°F one day. A couple of thunder showers but that was about it for precipitation for the entire month. We're getting some payback these last couple of days. If you enjoy driving vigorously through ponding water, you should be spending some vacation time here. You could kickback with a couple of one of my favorite brews Shipyard Summer Ale.
I'm staying in and watching the showers dance across the deck.
Chores can wait it out.
No guilt trip here.

  7. We seem to be in a cooling trend at the moment. I was debating heading back home and grabbing my leather jacket.

  13. All of NH must be soaked now as we also have had steady rains since Sunday, but no complaining here. We have no outdoor chores to do but still setting up things indoors. Sun is out today and we are out the door for a long walk!
