And Speaking of Ireland

We had a very dry winter here but our spring has been unceasingly wet. Rain again today. When my friend visited last week she said it reminded her of Ireland. It is remarkably green here right now, an unusual circumstance even this early in the spring. I don't have any grass at my house since I xeriscaped the entire yard eight years ago but other yards are nearly emerald. It has also been too wet to mow so the grass is standing about a foot tall. Still too early to plant my bean seeds, especially with the dirt so wet and cold.
