Our plan to make it rain


We have had less than a half inch of rain since the first of August. So we decided to take matters into our own hands. We set up a tent so we can sleep under the stars tonight. We will peel back the tent fly if it's not raining.



As you can see I have begun dismantling the platform we used last fall to tent with some of the grandkids. Since last fall it has been used to keep some outdoor furniture off the ground during the winter.

I left about 8' X 8' of it to use for now. The rest of it will be moved down the hill somewhere for tenting the rest of this fall.

And, no, the large Joe-Pye weed isn't growing out of the tent. It just got bent over a bit.
