More Rain...

The last time we had rainfall of any account was on June 2.  That's long enough ago that the ground was beginning to get pretty parched and dry. The crops were really thirsty!

On Sunday evening a storm rolled through, but we barely got .10", while just south of us folks got close to an inch of rain.  That's the way the storms have been this spring...very spotty.  The weather forecast has called for rain but we've barely got a drop, until last night.  I woke up around 2 am to hear the sound of a steady, gentle rain.  Music to our ears!

This morning this was the measurement...


It might seem silly to be excited over this,  but when your livelihood depends on the weather...over which we have no control...we are especially thankful when we are given what we need.

It's nice to see tracks in the mud...the milk truck and the tractor...


...and of course the reflection of the barn in a puddle...


Even the flowers are rain - kissed and happy...


I know that some of you have been desperately hoping for dry weather.

I hope you're getting what you need where you are!
