Finally!! Blessed rain!!
Many wells have run dry and many more have been sputtering, but,
thankfully, it's raining now. The local forecast is calling for rain
through Saturday afternoon. We received 4 inches of rain (here at home)
as of 6pm yesterday afternoon. Haven't checked on how much rain we've
had since then. It's has rained 95% of the time, starting sometime
Wednesday afternoon. We've had brief spells of thunderstorms & a few
tornado warnings, but no touch-downs or any severe damage. The tomatoes
that are still on the vine are rapidly filling out & the yard is
completely full of water, which, for once, is a much welcome sight!

problem!!)
