The catchment basin in our backyard filled up in 11 minutes. The rain was welcome, but we need more. The area has been very dry. Winky has been going wild with her planting. To keep her plants watered we have to have a drip irrigation system. This means small lines run everywhere underground. Pound in a stake and more than likely you hit a line. Now you have a leak to repair. Never ending fun.
When we first moved into our new home we were in an empty development, but not it has filled in. Fortunately one large patch of land near our backyard will stay empty, but a new home to the East has ruined part of our view. The home is not done yet. The builder made a poor decision and the driveway is steeper than Mount Everest. A fellow down below us built a huge house. The problem is he has two sons. One drives a noisy jeep that is getting on everyone's wires, and the other has a dirt bike that he rides every evening when some quiet would be nice. Such is life.
