We were going out to eat with my nephew, Vorquel (who's starting his freshman year at a nearby college), and I asked him if he noticed any differences between the incredibly arid state he just left and the very arid state he's now living in.
He mentioned that he thought it was odd how often people watered their grass.
Yes, isn't that strange? This is a desert people, not New England.
Of course, I was raised in another arid state where you get fined for watering your lawn or even washing your car.
Just to prove his point, yesterday I was taking my kids to school and the sprinklers were on at the playground. They had been left on ALL NIGHT. The yard duty lady said that the city runs them and they forget to turn them off. When I picked up Alice-Grace from Kindergarten at noon, they were STILL ON!
Oh, did I mention that it was also RAINING that day?
