At first, I thought it was well-digested vomit. But when none of those fleabags had the common courtesy to re-eat it, I started to think it might be poop. <br /><br />I am waiting for rain.Valhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13025832536749983018noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-534124540070958712.post-23304121964401166642012-05-26T16:02:33.253-06:002012-05-26T16:02:33.253-06:00I love your writing (and I love those birds in the...I love your writing (and I love those birds in the post before... wow!)... raining mud... so descriptive.

It has been very windy and hot here the last few days, and all sorts of things are blowing around, including Starbucks table canopies, seeds and dust.
