Re: rain? NOW Yardmen

I know you would Pam, and Yes, it is FRUSTRATING! I got out there tonight
an barely did anything (comparatively speaking) and now I hurt. Feel a hot
bath coming on! Of course I start physical therapy Friday so that's good. 

On a good note, my hummingbirds are back! YAY! There are two so far on the
red honeysuckle which is blooming like crazy. Last year I think I ended up
with six so I hope I have even more this year. I just love to watch them.
