ANOTHER DAY MORE RAIN

Another day, and more rain...


This was the radar downtown when we were awakened by loud thunder (and being in a high-rise, it has to be loud for us to hear it) at 5:30am.  We had FOUR INCHES of rain in town.  It slowed down and stopped for a couple of hours but now it's getting overcast again.  2nd Family said we had another inch or so overnight out at the farm.  It's good for the fruit trees for sure, and the grass, and replenishing the aquifers, but it would be better during the week.


Love this photo Sesame Street tweeted out yesterday.  They are awesome!


A side note to a friend of the blog that I'm trying to reach.  If JM, our "nearby neighbor" and my "bee buddy" is reading this, drop me a line at the email over on the side of the blog.  I tried to reach you a few times but the email bounced back. 
Hope to hear from you, thanks!!!

Hope everyone is having a good weekend!  I'll catch up on comments later today!

  1. It's funny, I hope for rain on weekends to keep the tourists away from our little (usually) quiet village! Then again, we don't leave the house often so we can enjoy the week here too. I hope you get some sunshine next weekend!!!

    1. Funny how rain can be a good thing or a bad thing, depending on what we need. Of course I guess ultimately, it always is a good thing because, water!

  2. That is A Lot of rain at one time. You may need a canoe yet to get back and forth to work in. :}
    We received 1 1/2 inches.
    Love the picture of the Sesame Street characters; They are Lined up looking like a rainbow. How fitting with the rain that is going on.
    Just now made them microwave Bread N Butter Pickles.
    Enjoy your day and stay safe.

  5. Hot and humid again today in Northern Florida, but no rain. I wish a certain someone would mow the yard before the rain starts again. We're supposed to have more tomorrow. I love the Sesame Street rainbow.

    Love,
    Janie

  6. Its overly warm and humid but the sun is out right now. I am afraid to say there is no rain today for fear of jinxing the rest of the day!

  8. Illinois had lots of rain last week. Really slowed our garden planting. Now its sunny and cool and we are working till dark every night, because the weeds...are taking over!

    1. If we could somehow take the resilience of weeds and combine with veggies and flowers and fruit trees, wouldn't it be nice? Ha. Can't wait to see the outcome!!
