it's raining!

21 years ago

It rained most of the night--a nice gentle soaker--and it is still raining! The neighbors' dog carried off my rain gauge--but I think we got close to an inch. It's suppoded to rain off and on for the next three days! YIPEE! I guess the naked dancing paid off. Let the neighbors mock me NOW! ;)

We got 2 and a half inches,great big down pour and then a steady rain for a while. My parents who live in town only got 1/2 inch, ten miles away. Hope we get more and others do to.
