Tuesday brought us three inches of rain according to my cracked rain gage. Thursday another 2.5...again cracked rain gage. Think it might be leaking? This trash receptacle is at the roof line (no gutters on our rental home):
As I write this brief post we are in the middle of yet another set of thunderstorms complete with downpours. We really don't need any more rain. But this afternoon the sun was out and we enjoyed sitting in the sun relaxing. At one point VPH called me to the patio. "Come here!" he shouted. "This spider's been busy." I'm kind of amazed that I managed to get this pic considering the wind and sun:
Is it calendar-worthy? Tomorrow is predicted to be a sunny day, but I'll be volunteering for a fundraiser for my local library. Seriously, this is the strangest summer since I've been gardening. I've only had to water twice and remember I'm growing almost everything in containers!
Not quite calendar-worthy! A wee bit blurry - the subject matter is perfect, though. Try for another.
And, please send your rain. We're in drough this summer...
