You've probably seen stuff saying California is back in the drought as this winter season hadn't brought much rain. Well ... it hadn't ... but now it has.
We have had March rains and are scheduled to get more. Our pond is full and so are the neighbors' ponds. See photos at the other DrC's blog.
In case you aren't sure, the late rain is good news and has resulted in serious snowpack in the Sierras. That snow is the real source of our summer and fall water.
Somehow CA manages to overcome the silliness out of Sacra-tomato, and be semi-wonderful much of the time in spite of people's best efforts to screw it up. We're happy to visit CA but wouldn't want to call it "home" these days. Its politics are fantasy-based and toxic.
