Explaining Watering

I had an interesting evening yesterday. I was out watering my trees, as the rain was getting ready to fall at any minute. One of my neighbors yelled across the street "You know it's supposed to rain right Adam?" I kinda chuckled and yelled back "It won't be enough for my trees" in response I get a "It's enough for them big ones" So I finished watering the trees in need, and walked to the end of my driveway. She was looking at me like I was crazy and asked how the rain couldn't be enough for my "little baby" trees yet enough for the big ones. This started a conversation that attracted her husband, and their next door neighbor. After about 20 minutes of trying to make them understand about the difficulty of proper watering, and how it needed to be done even though it was going to rain. I think I got my point across and thought they understood, so I take a long drink of my Corona (it was after all sinco de mayo) and was promptly replied with "That still doesn't change the fact that you're insane"
Couldn't argue with that
