The sage up by the road is blooming, and that means it is going to rain. We did get some rain overnight, which means we have had measurable precipitation for 20 of the last 22 days. This month is already the third wettest month EVER (not just for the months of May) in the history of Austin, and the rainfall totals are more this month than any month since 1921 (or some crazy statistic like that). Bring it on, I found a dry spot out in the front while I was collecting eggs this afternoon.This week has totally gotten away from me, partially because it was a short week, and partially because we have all been pre-occupied with rainfall totals. I spent a good part of the day in at the Board today; there was a great Member Forum on the topic of water and how we are already planning on coping with the lack of it in the future, and how we need to put principals in place to conserve the water we have and collect what rain we get, when we get it. Pretty interesting stuff, and there was a great panel giving their views on the fails and the wins we have made.
Deeds, Actions, Changes, RAIN, Kindnesses, Whirled Peas, FUN!
