    I didn't realize how dry it had become.

    I dread having to haul out the hoses and start hand watering. This happens about twice a year.

    I'm afraid dancing in this area will only produce rain here. I am not sure but perhaps a donation to a Native American charity to solicit rainclouds may work.
    Cloud seeding has worked in the past and washing cars has been known to produce results. :)

    Sorry to hear you have to drag the hoses around, if I only had to do that twice a year I would be dancing in the streets.
    Jerry none of those things have worked down here, I am open to most any new ideas now. Did try dancin' nekked under the full moon but even that failed.

    No,Capt, I haven't tried that. But then the clothes would be so covered in bird poop that they would have to be rewashed and that would lead to a vicious cycle.
