Rain

We've had very cool weather and RAIN.  Not a lot  of rain--not like the east coast which is flooding, but several inches of gentle, intermittent  rain.
Luckily, it has held off until we've had our Early Morning Walks
but then the rest of the days were more like:
It's stopped we'll go for another walk, 
oh no it hasn't, we might try later....
We missed the weekend meetings with our friends,
but were able to get out a bit.
This morning we went to the river.
The big puddle was almost across the track.

Dui had to 'christen' every other pole.
 We didn't want to stop for a photo; but she kept saying 'treat'.
Dui wasn't fooled, he knew there weren't any treats.
He has to see them first.
(Also, he is watching Demi, Buddy and Kenzie  arrive.)
We're expecting more rain, not  a drought buster yet.
The soil is only wet a couple of inches down.
But everything looks green.
And we know that it can  rain.

  1. We're glad to hear you are getting some good rain. It's too bad that it cuts into your walk time but you know it's much needed.

  2. With Oz's luck, you'll have floods. I hope not.

    Lots of rain here on Friday - And a "confirmed" tornado in/around SW Leesburg. Lots of trees down -- Crazy!!! Here's a link if HER family hasn't already told her about it.

  9. Finally a puddle...whew...I sure do hope the part of Oz with all the fires has received rain too. It tell you we have too much or too little and a the wrong times. Fingers crossed all are getting some.
