It sort of rained all the time. I thought I didn't mind too much (except I couldn't make my hair do anything nice), but when the sun appeared after 3 weeks I went crazy with joy.<br /><br />The sun is out here today after several days of rain. But our water table is low, so I'm glad for the rain too.Margohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16345165456341197559noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11022879.post-10007155096550315242012-05-10T04:45:07.602-07:002012-05-10T04:45:07.602-07:00In England we talk about all the weather all the t...In England we talk about all the weather all the time! Living in Cornwall (the most south-westerly county) we are almost an island and the weather varies so much between towns. Today I left home driving in thick fog to pick up my mum and dad to take them to see my 2-day old grandson. Mum and Dad only live 12 miles away from us but the difference in weather was amazing!<br />I so feel for you regarding the distance between your home and where your parents live. Our daughter and son-in-law got married last October and live in Wales, about 220 miles from here and that seems an awfully long way away.<br />KayAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
