Aug. 31st, 2012 01:08 pmRain!!!!!
Real, honest-to-gods rain, enough to wash down the windows and soak into the soil. Almost a quarter inch so far, which, sadly, is the most rain we've had at one time since mid-May. They're saying we might get an inch of rain out of this storm. *crosses fingers*
This morning, I planted lilies and iris and daylilies that followed me home from D's garden on Wednesday afternoon. She was spending this morning at her new house, trying to plant everything that we dug and sent to the new place. As of 11am yesterday, she is officially out of her old house. Her husband's kids now have custody of it until it sells (which is likely to be a mess).
With the drought, and the return of highs around 100 degrees, my garden looks pretry shabby. I've still got some zinnias, and morning glories, and one blue salvia in color, but the rest has dried up.
