KerryM Posted August 21, 2008 Report Share Posted August 21, 2008 It has been so long since we had we had any rain, middle of May, that I wasn't sure if that's what was happening. I had to go out side to make sure. Yup, that rain! So it started raining a couple days ago, the temp dropped down to 10C, that 50F in normal places, and hasn't quit yet. I'm not complaining, we really need the moisture. I'm getting ready to take off for a week, and this stops any chores outside that needed to be done before I leave, like mowing 5 acres of grass, or painting that mile of new board fence! It actually cut my to do list in half!!!! And I think I can sneak in some extra quilting time before I go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bonnie Posted August 21, 2008 Report Share Posted August 21, 2008 Trust me the grass will still be there when you get back as well as the fence..... I have 4 acres to mow with a tiny lawn riding lawnmower.....somedays I just wish it would grow up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DoryJM Posted August 21, 2008 Report Share Posted August 21, 2008 Kerry, please send some of that rain south! We had thunder on Saturday and it smelled like rain, but it never materialized. We need some rain badly!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Melora Posted August 21, 2008 Report Share Posted August 21, 2008 I couldn't agree more we have had rain the last three days. This summer we made rain barrels to collect the water and my containers are full, I too love the rain and am glad it is back. Melora Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BethDurand Posted August 21, 2008 Report Share Posted August 21, 2008 I'm with all of you. Rain is great! Keeps you inside to quilt or piece, or even just curl up wth a good book. Dory, I'll try to push it south with us. We're heading to Roseburg, OR (southern OR) for the weekend. Here's hoping. Beth Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boni Posted August 21, 2008 Report Share Posted August 21, 2008 Last weekend the temperature was three digits, and now it's raining. My barn will have to wait. My "little distractions" are napping right now so I'm up here chatting. You'd think I'd be working on some UFO or something? Nooooooooo It's so addicting to see what's going on in your world.
