I don't think Americans use "fortnight" much - My HS English teacher

was from England - married a yank at the end of WWII - and she used the term, but most of the provincials here just say two weeks. Thank you for the comment on my "average bear" post. Still grinning about it.

I love it. We have a lot of rain here that we attempt to catch in our rain barrel. It is all good until winter arrives.
