    We have had rain both days this month too! I think the rest of the week looks OK until Sunday when more rain arrives.

    Well Captain I guess you preview our weather. Squish, squish. Is the ground squishy? Ohio has not dried out from April.

    Our lawn could use some rain as I have put on the fertilizer.

    Well it rained off and on all night and it's still raining real lightly. Haven't been outside yet, so don't know how much we have gotten.

    Went out and put peanuts out for the woodpeckers. Checked the rain gage and we have had 1 inch of rain since I emptied it Mon. morning. So 1 3/4 inches this month. Saw a Robin with chest waders on looking for worms in the yard!

    I'm thinking of starting a rice paddy. Anybody want to help me out? I don't know the first thing about growing rice, but it looks as if that might be a possibility this year. it's been raining here for hours and is still raining. :'(
