Probably because, like you, I've been too busy to look at the 
elderberries beside the road any time recently, so my report is 
probably actually a month out of date.

BTW - I was up at Steve Moore's farm at Sonnewald (outside of York, 
PA) the other day and they have consistently received 1 or more 
inches of rain all season. He hasn't even installed his drip this 
season!!
