It's our fault. There was a ninety percent chance of rain today. Ninety percent. Did it rain? Not really. Want to know why? Because we installed a new rain barrel over the weekend, that's why. Last year when we installed our first barrel we hurried to get it in before a predicted day of rains came, but the day brought no rain (after the installation, that is). In fact, it was over a week before we got the chance to try it out. Well, we've committed the same blunder again. So, blame us. It will probably rain some time next week.
