We are currently experiencing an unusual dry spell in and around Seattle. Today is day 28 without any measurable precipitation. Spring in the Northwest is usually pretty damp. As a rule of thumb, don't expect summer to arrive until AFTER the Fourth of July celebrations. If you plan on going somewhere to watch the fireworks, be sure to bring warm clothes, hot chocolate AND a rain coat. As you can see from our back yard, we have had no rain for quite some time and the usual emerald colored grass is now the color of Kansas wheat that is ready for harvest. But, I am not complaining. Because of the wonderful warm weather, I have had many opportunities to go outside and play in the water.
