    It's been raining since Thursday evening about midnight or so. 2 and 7/10ths inches of rain since Thurs. evening! Can you say wet? This morning they said that we are 6 inches above normal for the year so far.It has stopped now but more is expected for this evening.

    We have a few days of rain in our forecast too. With all that snow that melted and this rain it's very wet. They are predicting a dry warm spring here, and so far they are wrong!

    I'm quite happy with the amount of rain we're getting here so I'll be generous and let you keep all yours CK. :p Looks as though you made a wise decision to take off the snow blower. :-D

    yup, I agree, feel free to keep it. There have been lots of hose pipe bans over the county, and now at long last, most of them have been lifted. I want dry now please!

    The neighbor in front of me has an extremely low section of yard that always floods when we get too much rain. I told him if it were me, I wouldn't mow it, I would stock it with fish!

    We had rain but not that you have Capt. Just enough this morning to keep me in the house when I so wanted to go out and clean flower beds.

    This afternoon turned out to be pretty nice. Had some breaks of sun, a little wind and the ditch that runs across my driveway has dopped down to where it normally is. The water in it was up by 3 ft. Sun. is supposed to be dry and if it is, we will be able to get some of the rain that they say we will get this next week.
