Wonderful! It's supposedly coming our way too, nice and steady, just what we need (no rain in our area of NC for almost 6 weeks) but I'm not seeing much movement heading east on the radar map right now.
ReplyDeletePlease, when you are done with it, may we have what is left over?
ReplyDeleteWe haven't gotten nearly that much in Tupelo but I'm SO appreciative for what we have gotten! It's been a difficult summer for my plants!
ReplyDeleteNothing compares to a Monet, Phillip, but getting much needed rain is pretty darn close.
ReplyDeleteSend some on up our way, won't ya ? A pretty dry August and September here.
Rain. It's all that's needs saying.
ReplyDeleteCongratulations, now please send some of it down to Birmingham!
ReplyDeleteI am so happy for you!! Your garden will look so perky in the morning. I am just green with envy. It has cooled down here by about 20 degrees but still no rain. Seeing this makes me hopeful.
ReplyDeleteHow fabulous! Hope it gets to my garden before the well goes dry.
ReplyDeleteAlso some cooler temps would be welcome.

Yes, we finally got rain, too. I can hardly believe how quickly the plants revived with the first rain shower.

I feel the same way Philip and could use a bit of rain here, too.
ReplyDeleteIt is raining here, too! After 92 days of 90+ degrees and only .13" of rain in September!
ReplyDeleteI would like to borrow that painting too! Enjoy!
ReplyDeleteThe rain finally reached Birmingham today! We sure needed it. It has also ushered in some cooler temps!!!!!
