Heck the repeated rain clouds blow through here so fast sometimes I don't think the rain has time to hit the ground--the proof is in the puddles, though. Basically it's usually headed in your direction. <br /><br />Mosquitoes--they're an inevitability. Just don't want to see them so big they can carry off Chance! ;)Ritahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02043285884495492598noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5456722259350114571.post-55354670754037661372012-06-22T12:03:58.119-05:002012-06-22T12:03:58.119-05:00We are desperate for some of that rain here.

If the rain is blowing, give me an umbrella to keep the rain off my face. It's probably my British heritage coming through, and I always joke about the rain being good for my complexion. Although if that was the case, with the rain we get here, I should be looking younger not older!Karenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08938874724231860923noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5456722259350114571.post-22870777869371270852012-06-22T09:47:29.642-05:002012-06-22T09:47:29.642-05:00Feast or famine...we are in a drought here and the...Feast or famine...we are in a drought here and there's high fire danger. I'd rather have the rain except for what happened in Duluth! I always life up my face to the rain and look at is as God's moisturizer but then again with acid rain maybe it's more like one of those face peels? LOL! Say something nice? Ok, the lack of rain here has kept the humidity at bay and I must admit there are very few mosquitoes down here...they can't take the heat!

So far, the skeeter-beeters are really tiny - but oh, so annoying!

It is so dry here that our trees are dying and the grass is all brown - grass will survive, trees won't. Good luck with your "super sized" mosquitoes.linda mhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08203742811516417039noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5456722259350114571.post-80228572759668232682012-06-22T07:43:06.058-05:002012-06-22T07:43:06.058-05:00If only rain would melt some of me! :)If only rain would melt some of me! :)GramMarynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5456722259350114571.post-13372250077325546652012-06-22T07:01:14.155-05:002012-06-22T07:01:14.155-05:00I've learned that rain doesn't melt me, ei...I've learned that rain doesn't melt me, either.
