Farm & Garden
Hurricane Ida hitting the coast of Louisiana with sustained winds of 150 miles per hour is something I hope to never experience in this lifetime. On the anniversary of Katrina, no less. I have to mention these weather events so I can remember to never complain.
Let me start with gratitude for having dodged the Henri bullet.
I’m ashamed that I ever complain about the weather.
I'm a big fan of bad weather. Monday morning's unexpected rain gave me a much-deserved day off.
I'm willfully guillible. When told something that either interests or tickles me, I tend to repeat it as gospel. To wit: years ago, I was told that when more than half the cows in a field are lying down, it is likely to rain.
For the past week, several days had skies filled with very interesting thunderheads. Sadly, they produced no rain to speak of.
