Sometimes the lightning that comes with a rain starts more fires. I feel for your poor cattle, I don't know why weeds and insects always seem to thrive, when good things seem to have to work so hard.Candacehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07282145706665260731noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-222786315881803285.post-4695070586224401362011-04-02T23:16:15.877+11:002011-04-02T23:16:15.877+11:00I hope you get some rain soon!

I just don't understand why we need it in the first place, and then if we do have it why does it have to go on for so long? Sorry for the whinge.
