Hey Dawn419, Did you get Rain?

[so lucky]

Just wondering if the storm front that has moved through SE Missouri also blessed your neck of the woods with some good rain? Hoping....

Thanks, sl!

We ended up with about a half an inch of rain between yesterday and early this morning. While it isn't much, it's way more than we've been getting and I'm thankful for it.

It was good timing, too, as the blackberries are just starting to ripen up here! Now if the wind would just take a break and quit drying the ground out so quickly!

Did you get much of it?

 

[so lucky]

Yeah, I think we got about a half inch, as well. The forecasters say there's still a chance of rain tomorrow here, so hoping we get a little more. Of course, I wasn't home to get the full enjoyment of the rain. I love to watch those first few draught-breaking drops splatter on the back deck! That's my rain dance.

Did you get any of the rain yesterday, so lucky?

We had a few drops, but that was all. Tried my best to make it rain by collecting deadfall wood for the firepit and picking blackberries, but I think I messed up by covering the wood pile and moving the camp chairs up under the roof!

How could you!

Got no rain on Friday, but the garden was still obviously damp from the rain on Thursday. First time that has happened this season! My DH actually washed both vehicles last week thinking that would do it: No. I left my car windows down one night; what a sacrifice but it would have been worth it: no luck. All the old sure-fire rain makers are failing us!!

Invite me to go camping in a tent. That should do the trick. :/
