It's Raining!

It started to rain a few minutes ago, just before 6:00 pm on Sunday September 4. We have been in a bit of a drought, no rain at all for at least a month, lot's of hot sunny days. Some of the grass was becoming brown and crunchy, some leaves have changed color and already fallen from the trees. The forecast is that we will get several inches of much needed rain in the next few days.

Unfortunately our friends in Texas are still suffering from a serious drought situation and I hope that they will soon get some rain.
