Water...Waaaaaahhhhh!

Rain-water sheeting off our sun-room
(ha!, make that our cloud-room) window yesterday afternoon.

The never-ending water-works continues.
I understand we were in a water deficit earlier this year.
We are no longer in a deficit.

Our lawn is cut and the next day, there's so much growth
it looks like it needs cutting again.
And one of my tomato plants drowned. DROWNED!

However...
I can't remember a greener, prettier CT spring.

O joy, our weatherman just announced
"a flood advisory for our area".

  4. Everything's lush and green here too. Our grass is on a two-week mowing cycle and it's really high but they've come today (thank God). There's 20 acres of it.
    Those movies are really cool.

  6. Wow! I think you all have had enough now, so you can just send it all down to us, okay? We're still in a drought, but then we always are.

  7. Just as I was reveling in the knowledge that it did not rain yesterday I turned on the news and the weather report was on ... ''downpour in the CT'' (they even named your street!)... I said 'oh shit, Annie's community garden is mud'

    And then I thought about all the mosquito and black flies in Virginia...

  12. While we haven't had quite that much rain, we still have the flood advisory x 4 days now. Hang in there...the sun will hopefully come out sometime before hurricane season starts getting active.

  13. Annie: It certainly is a funny season this year.

  14. They say (who's they?) that we are having the worst drought in 20 years.

    Living on the dry prairies it is hard to know the difference really. For me anyway. I wasn't born here and with only 20 years experience of the place......
