Wet

It was terribly hot here once again today.  Around tea time the dark clouds tease you...hinting at rain but very rarely providing any.  If you don't take care of the grass and garden, things dry up very quickly.  We have two sprinkler systems for the front and back gardens - each with about 17 zones.  Three or four times a week the system sprinkles away during the night although I tend to give new plants extra water at night once the kids are in bed.  It is actually quite theraputic to stand and water the things and notice the changes, the colours, the blooms.

However I can override the sprinkler systems...and I do often water between 10am-6pm even though you are not supposed to.......today was one of those occasions.....

Plus we were actually watering the grass, weren't we??
