My snow is finally gone! The last of it melted last Sunday...now comes yard cleanup, and then, hopefully, some rain.

Yay! Let the summer begin in your neck of the woods.

Are you having drought conditions there too? I hope you get some good rain.

We’re doing much better with the rain this year. So far.
