Thanks everyone! Joannie - we had about 30 minutes of a very light rain - not much at all, but that was probablly only the second time in the last 80-90 days. I think our record setting 100 degree days are finally through. Did you know I heard that we not only beat every Texas record but we now have the record for the hottest recorded summer of any state in the U.S. (even Arizona). I'm looking forward to some mornings with dew again and some fresh flowers to shoot ... :-). #9678139
