Silly Sight of the Day!

Hi Alba,

Of course there's nothing wrong with that - We can water the plants in
the rain anytime we like! :-)

Hi Jean how refreshing, I do the same here! in NSW. just imagine! the rain is pouring and yes I Am watering the windosill plants! nothing wrong whith that is it? . Al;ba

Jen, that's great!

Think we'd better learn how to raindance?
I keep going out in the rain, just to confirm it's real........ :-)

The rain came...and it is coming !!!! Thank you!!

Hi Lisa,

Yes, it was fun, and rain is great - it's raining this morning, which
is very unusual, and I went out in it because I could!

Hi Jen,

Well, I'd normally be booked by the water people too, but it was during my
two hours permitted watering so I was safe. That's partly why I was
doing it in the rain. We have so little at present.

Today's rain is so very welcome, sorry, we need it all here, so Georgia
can't have any. :-) Our reservoirs are not doing well at all.

Hello Snakes Mum,

I bet you had fun and it was refreshing!
Good luck with your next water, lol.

Thankyou for sharing.

All I ask is to PLEASE send the rain this way too....to Georgia. If I was caught watering my plants in the rain....I sure enough would be citation ed not a joke....but we are begging here to pull water out of reservoirs .
Serious stuff. NO DOUBT. !!!!

Hi Lisa,

I heard about the California fires - I think you get the same type of winds
and weather that we do. The hot North winds from across the desert
in summer are probably the same as your "Santa Anna" - they have
a disastrous effect when the bush is tinder dry.
Let's hope this year is better and we get the much needed rain.

Isn't nature funny. In the bucket it's red but, on the car it's just plain dirty.

Thanks for you posts everyone.

Monika and Wayne - what colour was the dust? I like red. :-)

Nina,
Thanks ! I'm off to do my reading and tagging of 5 blogs.

Raining is beautiful, especially walking in the rain with my boyfriend side by side. Thanks for
your post. Can you post it on the black community where I have plenty of friends who share
the same interest http://www.bigblackconnect.com

Hi Jean,
it's great that we can get a laugh out of life every now and then.
Monika heard the thunder, let the dog in, put her buckets out and
caught some nice colored dust.

Cheryl, you're right - that is even sillier! Not much brain cell activity
there! :-)

Jean that's quite alright go ahead and water your garden in the rain. a really silly sight is watching swimmers hustle to get out of the water and under an umbrella when it rains. I mean after all they are in the ocean. How much wetter can the rain make them?

What a hilarious story ! you made my day.

As you know, I love the rain! I sure do miss it.
I'm hoping that soon the rains will return.

Usually, December and January we get alot of rain. We live pretty close to where the fires were in Southern California, but far enough to be out of harms way. The first day we had the fires, the sky was Rust Orange, in all directions, and looked like 8 o'clock at night, when in reality it was only 1 'clock. The Wild fires seem to always come around this time of the year when we get whats cal

Interesting you got to water in the rain,this does not happen often ,
the garden got a good doze of rain and you got a shower,
Hope you get more rain for the drought .
Interesting blog.

I promise Beth I would read 5 blog and tag them so you are it
please do the same, thank you

Warm Regards, Nina

Hi

Thinking of you with your restrictions, in Melbourne. Crazy stuff this climate and water restrictions.

Here on the Sunshine Coast - we have had some good rain - in fact our local dams are at near capacity. But we are operating under water restrictions - hand watering only - restricted times and days.

Crazy or other motives - I think Brisbane is eyeing our water reserves, and does not want to risk uss using too much before it has the pipes in place to tap into our

Hi Jeff,

I'm really glad you people over there that the drought has broken. Rain is
beautiful!

The Met. Bureau aren't being very hopeful about ours, I'm afraid. Looks like
being a long hot summer. It's still Spring, and today is going to be 37 C.
Perhaps I'll melt...... :-)

We had a drought here on the East Coast in the USA, plus a blistering heatwave that really just broke about two weeks ago... Weather like this makes me crazy, so I know how you feel... I hope that it rains buckets for you sweet Aussie-folk, and for us too here in the States, as well!
