NW weather

I was talking to my brother, Jim, the other day and he remarked that from what he saw on the national weather maps it looked like we sure got a lot of rain. My response to that was that they lump the PNW under one big rain drop. It does not rain here all the time, in fact we are dry right now, even though we get a little mist every once in a while. We have had a lush spring (albeit cold) and the yards and gardens are looking great. The roses are building for a spectacular June.

Don't feel badly for us, those national maps over state our moisture, locally.
