It has rained. And rained. And rained some more.
84 Lumber is having a sale on gopher wood. The lower part of the lawn has always been a soggy morass, but now even the upper slope is muddy.
The only saving grace is that it is warm. Today had been pushing 60 º F (15-C) and the rest of the week looks to be the same. Heaven help us if this precipitation had been snow!

I would prefer snow too! So, how come rain instead of snow? Does it ever snow in your neck of the woods?
Just wait! We do get snow, but usually in January and February. We’ve gotten as much as two feet many times.
Ooh I look forward to seeing your photos then. I love snow but living in the tropics is a 365 day summer!
Garfield, try January 23, 2016 Lots of snow pictures there – and LOTS of snow!
