Rain.....................

All summer I've been complaining sharing with you our lack of moisture. 

The last few days have been overcast and drizzly and today it rained HARD for about 15 minutes.  It just happened to be the time I took Rascal out for his walk!  We had just started when it started raining and that's when I stopped and shot this picture - we cut it short, but not short enough.  We ran all the way home with him running ahead of me!  And when we got in we were soaked.  Leonard was out on the highway and he had to pull over because the rain and wind were violent. 

The plants, trees, grasses, everything should be so happy to receive this wonderful moisture.  Diane

I'm so glad you finally got your rain Diane. We were in the same "boat" as Leonard on Sunday. We couldn't see a thing it was raining and blowing so hard on our way home from up north.

Getting soaked is no fun,even if the rain was needed. Hope you are all dry and comfy by now.
