Just when I thought "This is it. No more rain for the summer. Might as well get used to the idea.", here comes a sudden gully washer out of the blue, complete with thunder and lightening that shook the house so long and so hard one time, I thought we might have been hit. Woohoo! The water tank is full again! All John's little trees are happy, since I haven't been real good lately about lugging water to them. I'm happy because, for once, it was cool enough this morning to throw all the windows open and air the place out. Now comes the tough part. Making that tankful of rain last until the next storm, whenever that might be.

Our measly 55 gal barrel was carried 20 feet (it was empty) by the winds that preceded the storm, so it remains empty :(
Bet your creek's running high again!! I wonder where the snakes go when a frog-strangler like that moves in? These fresh, cool mornings after a Hill Country storm are the best; only 67 out now; Brrrrr!
Thought of you when I ran across these poppy pics:

Neat blog M.E. I had to bookmark that one. Did you see her post about the old metal bouncy garden chair named Lucy? Those are the kinds of chairs you sit in at our outdoor theatre here, The Corral.
