I love it when it rains – even when we’re not in the middle of the worst drought this area has seen in years. We’ve had so little that the lake where our town gets most of its drinking water is down to some 16 feet deep now, not nearly enough to allow the water system to work as it should. The people who get Greenwood water have switched to bottled water until further notice. I don’t know how much rain we need to get back to normal. Luckily, we – on top of the ridge line southeast of Greenwood outside of the city limits – get our water from Milltown-Washburn water and a different lake that isn’t having problems yet.
It isn’t raining now, but it did overnight. Everything is still very wet, so we’re finally able to burn some trash we’ve been stashing in the house and in the shop. On the way back from helping my husband take boxes out for the burn barrel, I stopped in the back yard to simply enjoy. It’s still gray, clouds so thick they’re not letting a lot of sun in. The air is so dense it almost feels as if it’s raining. I tipped my head back and slowly breathed in.
AHHHHHHHH!

We have had a little rain the last days here and not much sun. We should get more rain, which is also needed after a long time without any rain.
I have been lucky to go out with Odin, while it didn’t rain here, even if I didn’t keep an eye, before we went out. I don’t mind rain, but I prefer it coming in the night and then some sun in daytime. Then the ground gets more time to suck the water too.

I hear you, Irene. I prefer a night rain, too; but, at this point, I’ll take every drop we can get ANY time. I hope you’re getting the rain you need there.
