So far over 1" of needed rain:thumbsup:

Rain??????????????? What's that??????????????? The last two weekends here, have been forecast with wet weekends. Both were dry.

We were out snake hunting tonight. My son shot one baby cotton mouth. My friend saw the momma the other day............over 4 foot long leaving a wake in the pond, headed to the island. Gonna weed eat that island tomorrow and plant 10 ducks there. So more snake hunting tomorrow night. We saw a lot of frogs tonight, so the ducks and snakes have some tasty treats out there.
hugs, Brandi

A real nice thunderstorm moving thru now with a heavy enough rain to hear it on the roof top .. Winds are not bad .. Just a real good old fashion thunderstorm!!!

I can't remember the last time I saw one of those! They are wonderful! I hope that you get a good drenching from it! I'm still not sure if anyone will get enough rain to make horse hay around here. May still be having to cross the border for that, this summer.

Ended up with 0.4" in the gauge here. Hoping for more today!

Well Easter has come and gone and we got none of the rain that they promised. It was a beautiful day with the wife and me. Only a 30% chance today........we'll see.

Smoked a Ham and we also had Roasted Potatoes and Asparagus. After that it was time for a nap, as Denise didn't get home from Church Sat. nite till almost 2300 and I waited up for her......was past my bedtime. Then up again early for Easter Mass.

Going to Sulphur Springs today and I'll finish up getting the rest of the stuff to plant in the garden.

This is one of the best years for bluebonnets I have ever seen.

It sure has been good, even the Indian paintbrush is doing equally well.
