went for a walk earlier, didn't know it was raining till we got outside. Just a light gentle rain, was not bad to walk in it. Being from far East Texas, it's what we call an East Texas rain. We may have some storms tomorrow.

I love it when it's accompanied but thunder and lightning, I love a good thunder storm. When it's just rain...well...it's just rain...

I am happy to get the rain. I've done a bunch of flower planting in the flowerbeds and laid some sod recently. Free watering is good.

Yeah, plus it has the nitrogen in it and no chlorine.

I enjoy sitting out on the patio and watching the thunderstorm. Always have.

Yep. I've been fertilizing all my potted hibiscus when I water them, they have lots of flowers now. They are my favorite, remind me of the Texas coast.

We have a bunch of red ones. Have some of the giants too. Those flowers are so big, they look artificial.

Gay! I always knew there was something different about you.. The rose growing explains it all. You seen that episode of King of the Hill when Hank starts raising the roses and enters them in the competitions. Thats got Stealth written all over it

I keep them in pots so I can over winter them in the garage. They're not hardy.
