It rained today. I don't know when it started, but probably a soaking rain for one and a half hours, at least. Maybe an inch?
Don't think it was supposed to be here.
Hope the farmer I saw haying yesterday afternoon got it in. In a good year, we get three cuttings. An okay year? Two. This is likely to be a one-cutting year.
Gracie, my three-month-old puppy, was amazed. She had never seen water fall out of the sky. Scared her, at first. Then she ran out in the yard, found all her favorite sticks and flimsy plastic garden pots she is demolishing, and brought them all up under the dry overhang on my deck. Then she finally ran around in the rain.
Good girl.
When I stepped outside and saw the wet, heard it on the metal overhang on my deck, I was astonished. What a lovely surprise.
Grandkids and mom are going to the lake cabin for the weekend--it won't have rained down there, likely. They will swim and maybe catch their supper.
It is going to be a might humid later. I'll nap, then research how to outsmart Welsh Corgi pups. Because so far this week, it is Gracie about 5, me about 1.
I can do better than that.

Oh, I love that Gracie gathered up her stuff to get it out of the rain.
We've had some here the last couple of days, but no long soaking rains. I'll take what I can get, but a nice female rain would be wonderful!
