YES I have noticed ! I just came in from bailing buckets of standing water out of my back yard fountain, flower pots and anywhere and everywhere that I noticed standing or excess water. By excess I mean it isn't going to seep into the ground any time soon. We normally do not have many if any mosquito's .....and I don't want any !!! We are expecting spring like weather and no rain in N. California for the next week or so. Diablo Valley GSD specialty should have idea weather for those shows this weekend. I am keeping my finger's crossed for good measure ! ;-0 My little Pembroke loved following me around out there and every once in a while conned me into tossing something for her to chase and bring back. My back is hurting big time about now...I am not sure exactly how many months I am post spinal surgery ?? Maybe not enough to be doing what I did today !!
