Sure enough, that woman who said a couple of weeks ago that the dog days were ending and therefore so too for the rain seems to be right. While we do still get rain occasionally, it's not happening daily anymore; in fact, we haven't had any rain for several days now. I think it last rained on Friday afternoon, a real deluge. It's still moist around here though. It takes all day to dry clothes outside on the line, and some like jeans simply don't dry in one day.

But every day SOUNDS drier than the last.
