T...Frances: Well, I hope you got some on Wednesday! That rain was CRAZY here.<br /><br />Mitchell: It did feel good to have some moisture coming down.<br /><br />Boud: I know! Usually we do things DESPITE rain.<br /><br />YP: Well, the whip isn't working, so I have to do something.<br /><br />Bob: It doesn't take long, either. Our garden already looks better after just a dew days of precipitation.<br /><br />Ms Moon: It was a good day!<br /><br />Ed: There's a lot to be said for having kids in school, that's for sure. :)<br /><br />Margaret: Yeah, that's about what we're doing.<br /><br />Sabine: Well, that's disappointing! I would think some of our weather systems might be headed your way too.<br /><br />Pixie: I'm glad you appreciated it! It's actually less wild than it was last year -- we've tried to keep it a little more under control.<br /><br />Ellen D: One came back yesterday that was due in February! So that made me happy.<br /><br />Robin: Rain is the best sound, especially when you're inside and dry. But I couldn't resist being out in it!<br /><br />Tasker: Dave is always working, even during breaks. My job involves a lot less planning, so I can really take more time off.<br /><br />Bug: You did! But that's OK, I know I repeat myself all the time. :)<br /><br />Sharon: Glad you enjoyed it!<br /><br />Colette: Thank you! I had to stand in a weird place to take it from that angle so I'm glad you noticed. :)<br /><br />Kelly: Yes, that's a pink anemone. We also have white ones. The rain DID get stronger as I made the video.<br /><br />Sandra: I'll remind you that you said that in February or so when it's all I'm talking about. LOL<br /><br />Debby: Yay! Rain all around!<br /><br />Jenny-O: Oh no! Well, erosion has its downside, that's for sure. I hope the fix isn't too much of a problem.<br /><br />John: It WAS great to be wet! I got even wetter yesterday! (Weds)<br /><br />Jeanie: And we still need more. I hope it keeps coming!Steve Reedhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11684120060438252945noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5123631695572626256.post-11288119422644156072022-08-18T03:17:48.861+01:002022-08-18T03:17:48.861+01:00I'm so glad you got some good rain -- you need...I'm so glad you got some good rain -- you need it so desperately.
