Geez...I've been cleaning the garage and power washing the floor. The stench of smoke out there is about as bad as I've experienced I think. I was coughing up a lung for a bit there, and I wasn't exactly "exerting" myself. Old folks and people with asthma had better be staying inside for the most part.

In the last 31 days (starting May 15) the Twin Cities has only had 0.26" of rain. Going back to 1871, that is the least by far during this time frame, with second place being 0.62" in 1988

Garden and pumpkin/squash mounds good and soaked, now I've got the soaker hose dripping on the tomato/pepper patch. I'll let that go a few hours and everything should be good to go for a week or more.
Tomorrow...the houseplot and pumpkin mounds get a soaking for the first time this year.

Filling up for the first time. I hope to only water the garden and the newly planted apple trees.

Weather prediction on my phone (weather.com) says 80% chance of rain tomorrow.
I started watering the houseplot/pumpkin mounds late afternoon yesterday and started the tower sprinkler on a new section a bit ago. I'll hit a couple other sections later this afternoon/evening.
I'll believe it rains when I see it happen...

Beautiful morning for a walk! At least the cool weather kept the mosquitos at bay.

We have an afternoon wedding tomorrow at 4 pm between- Alexandria & Osakis. So maybe that will get the rains going š!
At least we can move it inside, if it rains !

30 miles east of Rapid City is beautiful right now with all the rain they have been getting. Flash flood warnings here right now.
