@GlytchMeister @TheNewsOwl Oops! I did mention the peaches. I think Iโm extra upset about that because my bakery makes peach pie and peach cobbler, and Georgia peaches used to be the best.
@GlytchMeister @TheNewsOwl I think all the droughts in the midwest will make it more like a desert, but I donโt know for sure.
Now would be a great time to buy land in southern Canada to farm!! Georgia peaches are already a thing of the past. Theyโre trying to grow new strains of peaches, but itโs not going well.
The gulf coast will be under water sooner than we think. Itโs such a shame. None of this had to happen.
@TheNewsOwl Iโve thought for a long time that where crops grow will shift dramatically if we didnโt stop global warming, which we refused to do. So, here we are. There wonโt be any peaches from Georgia in grocery stores this year because of global warming (I heard that on NPR just last night). It has begun. We were warned.
@ceorl @Alfred It would all depend on which side of the boat they fell off of. The most important thing is for the person at the helm to keep their eye on the crew member all the times. You can jibe or tack, but you canโt take your eye off them or run them over. Also, throw the horseshoe life preserver thing right behind you to them before you do anything else. The wind could be doing one thing while the current does another. Itโs a quick judgement call, but keep your eyes one them.
@LlamaMountainStudioArts Exactly. ๐คฌ

@cjtownsend OMG, the rain was brutal!!! The wind was a tropical storm!! Despite this, Iโm happy to report that we (my aunt who lives here helped me) sold most of what we brought!!
@Ironworker229 Yes, thank you so much!!! I passed out when the work was done. Driving through the night to get there before the storm paid off. If I had been any later I wouldnโt have been able to get anything to the market until Tuesday. It would have been a disaster. Weโll be delivering every two weeks until the season is over.
@Klaatu_Veratta_Nectarine Yup. Between the pathogens and methane clouds trapped in the permafrost, weโre really screwed.
@heiliger Right?!!!! ๐คฌ๐คฌ๐คฌ๐คฌ
Of course, our big opening weekend of the year at the grocery store on Bald Head is plagued by gale force winds. ๐ฉ Iโll have to leave at 2am to try to get there in time for the first barge, in the hopes I miss the worst of the winds. Mom and I have been baking like crazy, and I spent every penny I have to buy all the stuff we needed to fill this big order.
@LnzyHou How long, and what, does it take to get rid of this swelling that happens when I bake for hours? I tried yoga and swimming, and I got stabbing nerve pain in my foot, which might be my back. I hobbled around on messed hips so long I screwed up my back. ๐
