Wish I could have some of the rain! Bone dry here, and almost sunny.

Our luck, it will rain tomorrow. We're going to the Gilmore Car Museum with friends. But we need it so badly, I won't complain. Rain coat? check. Umbrella? check.

Did anyone ever hear an umbrella called a bumbershoot?

Sally, if you REALLY want friendly birds, get a few Speckled Sussex. They are the lapdogs of the chicken world. I always keep one in my flock.

Never.

I got wet here, but not really a measurable amount.
Friends local weather station(for WeatherUnderground) shows 0.03".

Bumbershoot was something I learned in second grade. Never heard it since, but my mom and I called umbrellas that just because it's a fun sounding word.

I would argue that buff orpingtons are the friendliest. They are the golden retrievers of the chicken world.

Good morning everyone. Super rainy here so not looking forward to what I have planned for my day. What's everyone gonna be up to today?

I had to work the garden centre today. Stormy weather to start with. We have to close it if there is lightning. Too much metal framework there. The storms blew out after a while so we opened. But it was cold, foggy, damp, and very windy. I didn't see a supervisor for the first 6 hours of my shift, So I just did busy work. Made for a very long day of trying to stay busy. I hate days like that.
