A Very Rainy Monday ~~ November 16, 2009

Everyone Who Is Sick Of Rain, Raise Your Hand!
For those Greenviewanites who no longer live here, it's raining again, and rain is forecasted for every day this week although Wednesday says 50% chance of rain. I bet that it will rain.

Crops were really progessing these past several days and now it appears that the unharvested fields around Greenview are in the minority rather than the previous majority of fields from about 10 days ago. Lots of farmers were working well into the evening hours.....wanting to get the crops out. It appears now that Christmas may come and go with crops still in the fields.

Let's hope for a bit more dry weather around Greenview. Ok all Greenviewanites .....
let's all hope and wish for a rain break for a while. Count to three and make your wish.
