Raining all day jw, not those hard runoff downpours, but nice constant rain. A soaker, wish we had some this summer. But getting it now. I moved a bunch of grasses yesterday and sunday before it started, they had gotten too big for where they where. Some were just too close to the up edge of the pond, hiding the view from the house. This rain is great for them. Will get them nicely settled.

Will be moving perennials soon too, the plants have grown well enough to stock the rest of the yard. Time to move plants here. They grow great roots during the fall and spring. We have had such hot dry summers recently, I want to get them going before the heat hits again.

Yep we should! Loved not changing time in arizona, never had to think of it except when calling the family back east..

We got nothing from Irene here but Lee has given us rain for the last 5 days.

We have been getting rain since sunday, just one of those great nice soft rains, 2.25 inches so far per my weather station. Pouring right now, we have needed this all summer.
