The garden is suffering, the trees are suffering and the deer are suffering, as the rain teases us once again. I wonder if I did a rain dance if that would help? Maybe some of the Mi Wuk can help us out?

The good news is the air is starting to clear, in Twain Harte anyway. Visibility still sucks but the humidity is a certain relief. I just wish it would rain.
If it does actually rain, please protect your skin. I don’t know why no one is talking about acid rain, but the rain is not clean, not only does it have fine particulates of aluminium, it has the potential of having high amounts of radiation. Get your Geiger counter dusted off, and check around the area where you live.
Radiation levels are huge on the beaches, but then it gets up in the rain and travels long distances. Radiation levels are up all over the country. You can’t see, smell or taste radiation but it causes cancers, tumors, leukemia and other potentially lethal diseases.
We got a little sprinkling, nothing to write home to mom about. Maybe we will get more tonight?
