Not just a sprinkle, not a few drops...good honest to God RAIN!!!

I spoke to two farmers the other day that seemed almost to tears with what our Spring and Early summer weather had done to their crops. They might just be dancing in their fields right now. :)

Got a long way to go to get to you if it's heading west!  ::)
Sow your seeds, plant your plants. What's the difference? A couple of weeks or more when answering possible queries!

One of the best things about being an orang-utan is the fact that you don't lose your good looks as you get older

JayG..lol..I noticed that also. Just figured it was the same as my "right is left" thing I keep doing.
