Blessed Rain...
It has been dry, dry, dry here all summer. Our grass is brown and miserable - the gardens are happy, but only because of dliigent watering instigated by TRex (because what toddler DOESN'T love to water?). When we've had rain, it's been a bit here, a bit there. We are strongly resistant to watering the lawn because it's such a waste of water - so we've probably only given it a good soaking 3 or 4 times over the last 2 months. A couple of more localized ones when we did double-duty with kid entertainment and watering.
Today, though, it's RAINING. Not drizzling, not the odd thunderstorm that puts on a big show but doesn't drop much in the way of precip. It's been at LEAST drizzling all day, with a couple of periods of good, hard rain thrown in for good measure. The lawns will be happy. And maybe some of the Japanese beetles will drown for good measure.
In other news, but not enough to warrant its own post, it takes for bloody EVER to iron 11 yards of 60" fabric. Just sayin'.
