Some startlingly heavy showers, during which little birdies hung onto the seed-sock hanging under the eave of the garage, chowing down while they waited out the blasting rain.
I saved the mowing of the backyard for a day to let the grass dry out a bit. It's sunny and beautiful, with a vibrating blue sky and a clear view of the hills, which are starting to look pale green. But there are wads of wet grass everywhere, and the morning glories are dead, bang.
