Between knitting and working on an upcoming PTF presentation/powerpoint for a community event with John Thackara on Feb 12 in Newport Beach, I see the rain is still coming down in torrents.
Justin checked the rain gauge and we are at about 2 1/2 inches! WOW. What a difference a day makes. Thanks to the San Gabriel mountains, the clouds have just parked themselves over our little valley and it’s raining like cats and dogs. What a fabulous start to February!

February 6, 2009 at 12:38 pmI’m envious of your rain! Here in Riverside the clouds are just teasing me as they float by, without dropping anything. Sigh. We got a good bit last night, and I’m hoping for more – any days I don’t have to irrigate are good days in my book. Enjoy your rain!

February 6, 2009 at 1:08 pmYay knitting while it rains! (I just realized I needed to rip 15 rows of the baby blanket I’m working on – and I thought I was almost done!)

February 6, 2009 at 6:53 pmEnjoy the rain! Yes, I second the rain blessings to Austin too. We are in a F5 drought, the worse since the 1950’s. But I’ve managed to have a great salad garden without too much city water. Thanks so much for the inspiration. We put out the work for your website and freedom gardeners today at the free 2-hour growing techniques tour at Boggy Creek Farm. We had a great turnout and there are so many people wanting to grow their own food! It’s great.
