NWS says Denton got .01" of rain. I don't think I got that much, but I did see a few sprinkles.

Just like Dennis, I got 0.4". It was WONDERFUL! I was out mowing my ROW and the one across the road from my place. I also mowed part of one neighbor's ROW and a small area between my new ponds and the road. I was just getting ready to start on the pond dam when the wind picked up and some big drops started falling. I high-tailed it back to the house and got inside just in time to miss the first wave right about noon. While watching the rain, I dished up a big bowl of bean soup and a bunch of pickled peppers on the side. Our temperature dropped about 10 degrees and stayed cool the rest of the day.

We had the Oilers back then. But back then, all I was involved in was little league baseball.

Ahh, the Oilers and Earl Campbell, even without ever getting to the Supper Bowl those were the days......

Today is harvest day for the sample experimental peanut section in the garden. The few samples that we have picked are varied. The plants are not completely yellow but some are starting to sprout in the shell because of recent rains. These are larger peanuts and not the small spanish kind Lee County was known for. I'll have to watch what seeds I plant next time. I'll take a pic of the harvested crop this afternoon. That is a dry Norther heading this way I hope?

All of the raised beds have sprouted and we are already eating lettuce and broccoli sprouts as we thin them.
