(lately i think stevie ray vaughan was right)
maybe it really is crying. weeping is more accurate. up here on the north coast it's been raining most of the day today. last week there were three all-day-rainy days. lots of folks have been complaining. the thing is, lots of precipitation is an automatic up here. it always has been. however, we have had more rainfall this season than in a long, long time. gardening is a challenge so far. maybe we will have some warm weeks in september and october, and recoup some growing-time. who knows. the weather patterns have been chaotic here in the golden state over the last week or so. several earthquakes in the far-north and far-south. a tsunami north of us a few days back. one thing for sure... all of the rain has made everything just perfectly GREEN. my favorite. the tips of the redwood tree branches are nearly flourescent, and all of the ferns are curly and lush. me? i really do like the rain, and i always have. it is somehow appropriate right about now. however, it may be a rough year for tomatoes and peppers around here.

Anne, I think we love rain, cuz it is so rare her in CA. Although, not this past rainy season. We had been in the fog for days. This is the third day in a row now that we have had sun. I am happy to see it and feel its warmth....It has been so cold.
We still have some green left. However, things are changing fast and we are in for a horrific fire season. After all the fires last year, I am not looking forward to the hot dry weather.
