| | Balance in all things... | Rain! It actually rained here yesterday. Sad to be so excited over some rain, but everything is parched. How about everyone else? Have you gotten any rain lately? I see the rain does much better for the plants than my watering does...it is interesting how different it is for the plants than watering from the tap.

Tap water . . .
We have only a 30% chance of rain later today.

Back to dry ground, humid air, and heat that much.
I agree..a nice rainy day would work wonders for the plants...maybe us too. I hope your mood is sunny soon, although I find a rainy mood isn't too bad for a day sometimes.
