i've been trying to get the front yard flower beds cleaned out for a week. It's rained nearly everyday or threatened to rain. The clay soil is so wet that I just can't go back to cleaning. I got 2 beds partially cleaned.

I don't dare complain. Like you, I'm afaid it won't rain again. One year we had rain, lots of rain, Jan,Fed til March 15th then it didn't rain again to Sept!!! All around us it rained. Even as close as a mile down the road, but we didn't get a drop. We lost grown huge old Oak trees to that dry year.

Last year, by far was the hottest year I can remember. We did get some regular rain but we had weeks that the temps were over 100 degrees every day.

It sure would be nice if we had this weather for the rest of the year. It's been in the mid 80s and lows in the high 50s. Perfect temps!!!

Blessings to all, Mona
