| SHEESH - yesterday was the last full day of summer! Hard to believe cause it's just gone by so fast. I've been fortunate to have done lots of fun things, and overall we've had amazingly good weather. That said it's been a very rainy week. It poured Sunday night, rained cats and dogs all day Monday, showers on Tuesday tho it was mostly dry yesterday (Wednesday). It's pouring again and quite windy at noon, plus we will have a cold front come through tomorrow (Thursday) night! By tomorrow we should have gotten well over 3", perhaps as much as 4", of rain this week. Ya know, if this was snow, we'd be into some serious plowing. |
