Wind Blown

The weather forecast, since the middle of the week, has said that it would be warm and moist this weekend.  Does this look like WET???  If by wet they meant blown with a fury then they speak the truth.  The mild wind (10mph) started early yesterday but increased today (20-25mph) with gusts into the low 30's.  The herbs took refuge out of the wind.  Hardening to the elements is great as long as they don't end up 3 counties over!  The buckets, well lets say I've seen hurricanes do less damage.  And at least they bring rain!  Forecast for tomorrow: the same, warm and moist (HA HA HA) with cloud cover and lots of wind .
On a happier note the dew collector works fantastic.  With a scarce amount of drizzle yesterday, the small yellow bucket was filled again.  Of course its empty already.  Nothing dries out moisture like the wind.
