Downpour Again!

This is typical of the storms that have been dumping lots of rain on us daily. I can't remember a July when the yards were so green and we have to mow lawns every 4 to 5 days to keep up with it. Usually the grass is browning out from the heat and lawn sprinklers are out working trying to save it.

However the farmers are starting to worry as too much rain is having a negative effect on many crops. Young corn is stunted from all the rain. We may never have red tomatoes this season at this rate!

What's that Super Tramp song...? :)
We've had over 7 inches this month too and the same worry about crops. We'll have to send Cindi a bottle or two of it.

They say there is always a silver lining, sometimes it's hard to find, but, it is a good capture of the rain.

A pleasant leafy outlook you have, even on such a wet day. A good capture of the falling rain. We are also having plenty of rain this month, but it's winter here and after at least 8 years of near-drought we are loving it!

Same here, Patti!
Pretty depressing, isn't it?!
Nice shot of this downpour.
