How REFRESHING!

WOW! It's AMAZING what a *little* rain will do 8-) We actually received .18" yesterday afternoon, a "spit in the Ocean" compared to what we NEED, but MAN...the trees, flowers etc look SO refreshed this morning and the SMELL is ALMOST overwhelming!

That is what I love about Mother Nature. She does make things so fresh and nice when she waters!!!

There is such a huge difference between what grass and a garden look like after a 1" Mother Nature rainstorm and a 1" artificial "rainstorm".

Ain't that the truth Brother?!?! Our water bill for last month made the National Debt look like CHUMP change "LOL!" Seriously, a $154 water bill and everything looks OK but that *little* shower yesterday has ALREADY made a HUGE difference!

You're absolutely right Dennis - there is no comparison between a sprinkler system and actual rainfall!

I saw on the weather maps yesterday afternoon the showers parked over your area. It was great to see!
