Gardeners Beware!!
Any of you that have worked and toiled in your garden this year:
It's been a less than favorable spring/summer, and any success you have had may be for not today/tonight.
>>>> http://www.weatheroffice.gc.ca/warni...e.html?abrm121

50 to 80 mm is Huge!!
This has been the worst year for gardening in a while, With the cool spring, the "missing" summer, the brutal increase in wind, and now this, ...could ruin it all.
I don't know about others, but all my efforts this year have produced very little so far. I can't beleive how slow the growth is this year.
If we get hail today/tonight, I will consider the 2009 gardening season a complete and utter write off!!!
......fingers crossed.

Hmmm. I don't know. It comes naturally to me. But the way you had it with the apostrophe in gardeners reads like the 'gardener' has a 'beware'.

Only in ownership situations, or where letters are left out of a word.
That 's (that is) Jason 's (Jason owns it) bike.
Common mistake 's include putting one in plural word 's.

What are you growing? Vegetables or flowers. Because if it's flowers, that's gay. If it's vegetables, that's cool.

apostrophes are also used to contract two words like in my sentence above

Uh... it means Gardener OWNS a beware.
Dude's Wallet (belongs to a dude)
Dudes Beware (attention all dudes...)
See? Guh, so hard to communicate these rules.
...
On topic here though... I floated over a massive puddle in my gf's car today on the way home from work on Crowchild S before Glenmore. I seriously drove on water... what's that called again?
Jesus car.
