Friday, 7:45 AM. 42 degrees, wind NE, calm to light. The channel is slightly wrinkled, the sky clear. The barometer is down, predicting partly cloudy skies. The low of the past several days, which never did produce any rain, has moved east and its counter clockwise rotation is sending us cold winds right off the big lake.
Today is a full day, with a 9:00 AM Arbor Day tree planting and dedication of the new Cooper Hill Park, and at 11:00 AM the Larry Meiller Garden Talk radio show kicks off Bayfield in Bloom at the pavilion.
Blue forget-me-nots are blooming in the ditches, and gray pussy toes in sandy lawns. The purple flower is Burgenia, much used in older gardens here but which I find too coarse for my own tastes.
