So I'm actually hoping we get a little more rain for the fruit and veggie crops. <br /><br />And when it doesn't rain for long periods of time, and then it finally does, the reprieve is usually really nice. The air smells so fresh and clean, and everything seems to be more alive after the rain. And you can curl up with a good book and a cup of tea and get all snuggly.Steviehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12153149217472000710noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2119996845182958780.post-20399134385904202382010-04-23T12:27:43.545-06:002010-04-23T12:27:43.545-06:00Ha ha!

That's what it looks like the ground is doing.<br /><br />I don't even mind driving to work in the rain. I mean, this is a situation where driving really beats biking.<br /><br />The only thing that makes me sad is watching the petals get washed off the flowering trees. I've waited SO LONG for those flowers.Melospizahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02967972017593146047noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2119996845182958780.post-38854735067453337862010-04-23T08:57:45.892-06:002010-04-23T08:57:45.892-06:00Ha!
