High temperatures were in the 60's and 70's with a high of 74° on Thursday. Lows were mostly in the 40's with a couple of 30 degree mornings. The low of the week was 31° last Sunday. It was a windy week with some wind everyday, varying in intensity each day. Plants and grasses continue to grow in the wildland areas and deciduous trees are putting on more leaf growth. A lot of different kinds of birds are frequenting the garden. The black birds are especially active, bathing in the bird bath and collecting materials for nest building. Also, a lot of geese seen flying overhead.
