Shoveling Fix
I don't know how many days it has been since we've seen a real rain. Matt do you know? You mentioned it the other day. I know Phoenix is counting about 126 days straight. I don't think it's that crazy because...uh...we live in a desert!
So, to get my fix for the "winter" of shoveling snow April and I ordered 2 tons of rocks. I can't say exactly what we did with them because we are keeping every house modification a surprise since my parents are coming to visit soon. But, I will mention that I spent 4 hours continuously shoveling last night. It felt just like a Pittsburgh winter minus the cold, clouds, humidity, gloves, snowpants, heavy coat, and hat. And minus the neighbor who tries to park his car in the spot that you just shoveled snow out of (which is why you put a chair in your spot on the street once you're done).

Now I don't remember where I heard it. Definitely something about a record amount of days without rain... but maybe that's over the winter or something. In any case, I hope we get _some_ rain so there will be a halfway decent bloom!

..and also so that every tree in AZ doesn't spontaneously combust in fire this summer.
