You make it through Harvey okay?
Yup. Free rain water at high levels for the gardens and the lawn. I
think the pear tree is growing faster now.

Up at 0530, used the flashlight to look at the rain gauge on the back
fence. The gauge holds six inches of water and the float is on the
ground. Looks to me that the rain is falling at about six to eight
inches an hour and, probably will be going on for the coming week.

My weather app says an inch an hour for the next week. Thank goodness we
bought a house on a goodly sized rise with good drainage.

Both vehicles parked on the concrete drive are very clean now. Free car
wash. We shall see if the lady of the house is willing to drive through
flood water to go to church. Hopefully she will sit it out and just do
her prayers. Her church is in downtown Tomball, TX at a lower elevation
than our spot.

No strong winds blowing here, just a steady rainfall, a gardeners wish
comes true.
