For ONCE our NY weather is worth bragging about. Went swimming twice this weekend, though a tad chilly at 70 degrees on the surface. Those infamous "cold spots" were everywhere. It has been bright and sunny for coming on 10 days now. Went from brown and dead, to green and lush.

Now things are getting pretty darned dry for this time of year! We should break the drought this weekend since I am part of taking over 40 Cub Scouts on a campout for 3 days. Better call the National Guard and warn them about flooding issues where we are going.
