Take That, Weather!

It's rainy today.  Not one of those torrential downpours, but a gentle spring rain.

So happy that both the front and back lawns have already been mown, so they are already short and when the weekend comes Maxx should be able to go over them again as it's supposed to be nice Friday through Sunday, so it will be fairly dry and already short enough that it will be a quick job to go over both lawns and keep them trimmed up.

Hopefully we'll be able to do so all summer long and keep the lawn under control this year!

I'm feeling a wee bit guilty that with the gentle rain today I have no plans to go outside on my lunch and work further on the blackberries ... but looking at what I got done on the weekend, I can't feel too badly!

Now we need to get the back of the fence and the side of the fence fixed up at least enough so that the dogs can't get out.  Angel and Hobgoblin have no desire to leave the yard, but Imp and Elf are more into chasing the cats when they are present when the dogs go out, and of course the cats don't simply go up, they go away ... and the other day Imp discovered the gap in the back fence through the tangle of blackberry canes, and wandered off for a while, although he did come back eventually to my calling.  Have to keep a sharp eye on them until we have that addressed!
