How could you be dry, we must have gotten all your rain here. Helen was just flooded near here and they had to close the river from tubing as it was too high and fast in the chattachoochi.
No rain here either. Until next week....
Last time I looked, it was 95 degrees and humid as hell.

We had some areas flooded just a couple weeks ago . It doesn't take long to dry out this time of year . We may get rain Monday and Tuesday if not Im going to have to start watering the garden .
Everything is still moist, but is is hot and muggy. So much so that I’m laying in bed watching tv in the AC on a clear day off out there.
Psalm I had 3" in 2 hours this a.m. did it hit Bonaroo. We had a flood advisory
We haven’t had any, but I looked at the radar before a hot sweaty hike this morning and saw a lot up there.
Did I mention that it hot and humid?
I've een going from too much rain to the ground having cracks from too dry.

Yesterday started out warm and clear, in the mid 60's. By noon the wind came up, the temp dropped 20 degs and it started to rain. Me and my hired man stopped work on the fence and had a few beers waiting to see if the rain would stop. It didn't. Overnight the rain turned to snow. Right now it's in the low 40's, partly cloudy and windy.
I'm in the outdoors 24/7 and love just about everything about it. But there are times when I feel the need to take some time away from the mountains.
The wife will be home in about 3 weeks. She decided that we need to take a trip to Portland for a few days to visit her family. I'm actually looking forward to it, even though I know that after getting stopped at the first traffic light I'll be ready to come home.

That's more rain than we get from June through October total.
It's about time for us to go into our yearly drought. Lol
I will have to water the veggies almost daily very soon.

We have settled into a pattern of weather that seems to be completely normal for this time of year. Brief rain once or twice a week. Not too hot (highs around 90). Of course that means the skeeters are out in full force...like normal...
Since I live at the lake, I usually wear lounge pants after sundown when I'm hanging with the chickens.
