Summary:

We reached a milestone this week in my backyard (backyard in both the literal and figurative sense). We reached "normal". I've been tracking rainfall totals in my backyard since 1991, and up until 2011, the average yearly rainfall has been 14.67 inches per year. The last four years of drought brought the average down to 13.92 inches, but the last nine days have brought us 2.98 inches of rain,
