And rain? We’re filling the rain barrels with tap water.
Oh, our tomatoes and cucumbers and squash. There’s one cucumber on the two remaining plants. The squash are blooming, but there’s not much sign of any fruit.
You don’t believe me. I know you don’t believe me when I say that we’ve had no rain forever.
For the past year, that is since June 2010 (see City of Austin), here are the days where we had more than one inch of rainfall.
