Do you need rain?..........

I have two tried and true methods to make it rain.  It didn't work last year, nothing worked to make it rain in the extreme drought. But if I systematically water every inch of the yard, which usually takes two days of dragging the hose from one spot to the other I guarantee you that it will rain.  Or if I give Rascal a haircut because he has so much hair and the weather is so hot - again, it will rain and turn cooler.  Maybe I could become a rainmaker!  Most people have sprinkler systems now, though, and even Rascal doesn't have enough hair for commercial haircuts.     Diane
