Our ten rain barrels all virtually empty, filled up in less than ten minutes.<br /><br />It also flattened the Campanula persicifolia, brushed all the petals of the Kolkwitzia and turned the wonderful flowers on the Rosa Dortmund a hideous brown. <br />Yin and Yang, part of life I suppose.<br />Nice to see an English log in the top ten for a change.jocohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08443120495036936430noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1821154437036673351.post-80920321272711346602009-06-08T13:14:57.485+00:002009-06-08T13:14:57.485+00:00Thank you all for your commiserations.

Hopefully it will continue for a while. Raingardner it was funny the birds wouldn't use the feeder at all until we moved it into it's present location. They like the trees for cover!

It's great when the rain helps us with our chores and disappointing when we planned on it and it doesn't happen. It's weird here where I live, it can be raining on the mainland and not here...Today, it was foggy on the beach on the neighboring barrier island (Assateague Island), but sunny here (Chincoteague Island)...go figure!islandgardenerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13961480147327967013noreply@blogger.com
