Anticipating Precipitation (RAIN)!

 RAIN Gauges

Despite the West Coast's reputation for reliable rain...we haven't had any real rain for nearly 2 months!
 
SO...in anticipation of rain on Sunday our Garden Warriors settled into making rain gauges.
 Funnel tops were carefully cut off the tops of soft drink bottles...
 ...then placed into the top of the remaining base of the bottle...
 ...measurements or gauges, were carefully added to the side with a rain proof marker pen...
 ...paper clips hold the funnel in place!
 
Now just remember to smell to sit back and smell the last of the summer flowers while we ALL wait for rain!
This weeks bunch of flowers went home with this wee new entrant...Welcome to our Garden!
