"You've Got...Moss"

We had quite a bit of rain in San Diego in December; a total of 4.69 inches.  Considering that our average annual rainfall is about ten inches, that's almost half our average annual rainfall in one month.  We're very happy about that, because after several years of severe drought, we can certainly use it.

The plants love all that free water, of course, but that also means that the weeds are sprouting, and we've now got moss growing between the flagstones in the backyard and on the decomposed granite out behind the fence.

I think that's pretty cool, and we certainly hope the rain continues through the rest of the winter.
