Title: Houston...We have Rain
Post by: Peter on July 07, 2003, 03:58:26 PM
Thank you all of you who "thought" rain towards us, its 4:53, and we just got 3 tenths in 15 minutes, and its still comming down.

this probably saved our 10 acres of cabbage that we planted on thursday and friday last week, they were wilting, and would have been a total loss by wed. without this rain.

Thanks clap.gif  clap.gif

Very happy for you Peter; let's hope the rain continues in your area.

Dave

Edited: Another spelling mishap. doh.gif   Peter, hope you are better at farming than I am at typing.

Gosh Bill, I don't know- I wasn't aware that cows went camping biggrin.gif

Kelly- I think that that rain is going to hit us thursday- we have a 50% chance of heavy storms that day so hopefully we get some more.

Krissel... Did it work? If so... Jennie put me next in line please... wink.gif

Bill... let me tell ya a little story about rain, camping and me...

We went to the Okanagan in B.C. one fine "hot, hot, hot" longweek... decided to set up camp in Vernon (nicest lake with no weeds)... pitched the tent... that night it decides to do something it never does in the summer in the Okanagan... rain!!

That's when we found out that a tiny little rut that one wouldn't even notice running right under the tent had the capability of turning into a raging river! Woke up soaked to the bone... spent about two hours in the laundromat looking like one of the black clouds outside, speaking "nasty" words... drying out sleeping bags, pillows etc.

I was NOT a happy camper...  wallbash.gif

Nope. Not going to tell that story. biggrin.gif
