Default Someone do a rain dance, please

the snake thing is an "ole' wives" tale around here. 50-50 chance of that
actually working anyway. haven't seen any snakes here lately. too dry for
even them i guess. told my husband to try the spit thing. need rain badly
here too.

find a snake, kill it, hang it up in a tree, it should rain within two

We haven't had any appreciable amount of rain this month. My
seedlings are
this - | - high and staying there. The ground is so hard I have to
use a
pickaxe to transplant stuff. I'm watching the forecasts but the
promised weekend rain looks to be getting less and less likely.
Someone do a rain dance or tell me how to do one. I'm thinking that
our Black Spring is going to be followed by a Toasty Brown Summer.





Ah, I can't kill a snake. Don't worry, the turtle/spit thingy worked. In
fact, I may have to go back and get my spit back because it's not supposed
to stop for a week.
