We of Little Faith...

It rains - some. Then we think we're out of the woods in the drought sense. Then it doesn't rain. Then we think 'we're going to have to start watering again'. Wow. Look at poor Houston. We want rain, but we don't want 10 inches in four hours! Will and I were on the phone today...'you just can't get it right with the rain' we said. Well. That's a large part of gardening, isnt it? Too much, too little. But...this afternoon late I went into the yard to water the 4 o'clocks and fill one of the bird baths. And I heard thunder. And I looked up. And a storm was forming almost right over our place.



So I sat on the patio and felt the drafts of cold air being pulled down from far above. Saw the clouds building, but wasn't really convinced anything would come of it.

We had a fabulous storm.
What a great frog night this will be.
Listen to the rain and cook some okra and tomatoes...
