Thanks for sending your rain to Texas. We've had wonderful rain for 2-3 days now and at present, it's raining really hard. It's been good, long, soaking rains and all of the 2 1/2 days of off and on watering I did last week was obviously another reason it's been raining so much. All I need to do to encourage a good long rain is to water enough to really soak the entire foundation, the trees and the lawn - a good $75.00 worth of extra watering - and shortly the monsoon rains move right in! And it's really cool for this time of the year. At the time you started your post, it had been so hot and dry for so long and then, boom, great rains here. Time to stop computering and listen to a good audio book until I fall asleep with the sound of rain in the background.
