    Default Finally rain

    After a long dry spell this summer that left the grass brown we are getting a decent amount of rain and the grass is greening up. Forest fire season in the province is slowly winding down and the rain has helped there too. So far this year Ontario has lost 770,000 Hectares/1,925,000 Acres of forests to fire. Worst forest fire season in years.

    Happy for you. Hope rain comes to us as well. We need it so much here. Unfortunately, they say that we will experience floods when rain comes due to extensive fires during summer and damage to large forests.

    Glad you are seeing some moisture. If you have any extra, send some our way.

    Bob, got the rain! Thanks for sending it. I hope shipping costs weren't too much.

    We are getting a nice gentle rain, it could rain like this for a week and not hurt a thing. However it's only supposed to be for today and tomorrow, but it beats a swift kick in the arse.
