Rain Finally...

We woke this morning to a cloudy sky, but still no rain. I wanted to go and check to see if watering the mums had helped, so I started putting on my shoes and I heard Linda say we were getting a load of pavers delivered in our driveway. I went outside and Lee Brick and Block was delivering our pavers. It was a huge truck with a boom that lifted each skid off, swung it over to where I asked the driver to place them and set the skids down easily, without even disturbing a single brick. Linda said she was impressed. The driver unloaded 5 skids for a total of 800 pieces of rectangles and 800 pieces of the square pavers also. I think it's going to be a long hot summer of laying pavers.
After the pavers were all delivered we jumped on the 4-wheeler and headed down to the mum patch. We slowly drove around the patch looking for dying mums, but thankfully, didn't find very many. Probably 5 to 10 were not going to make it, but we will see how many we lose at the end of the season. I usually roto-till a few accidentally too, and some die when we fertilize the patch. The creek water definitely help though. About 2 in the afternoon, Stacey and I were taking a DVD back to the video shop and it was starting to rain in town. As we came back home, the rain had made it to our house, although not a downpour, it was helping our mums.
