Rain at Last!

After several weeks of hot, dry, weather, we closed our seasonal rainfall deficit in two days. My rain gauge measured exactly 5", but not far from here they recorded nearly 11".

The grass had gotten so dry, it looked like late summer with yellow, thinning patches and uneven growth. Now, it looks like April...rich, green and lush...and all within two days. No matter how much you water from a hose, it doesn't begin to match the results of natural rainwater.
