Rain!

[elizilla]

It's been a couple weeks since we had significant rain. Fortunately it was cool for the last week or so, which meant it didn't get quite so blasted out there as it sometimes does. But it finally rained, hard and long, last night. Our grass looks better already.

We have not watered the grass nearly as much as we did last summer, since it costs a small fortune and our soil erosion permit is closed now. We have focused just on watering the flowers and the new trees.
