Texas Spring/Summer Thread

Somehow jinman, you get your rain, and part of mine too, but I think I'll let it slide, this time!

Oh no! That's not true. You were only supposed to get 1/2" instead of 6/10". The extra 1/10" was what I sent you because I only got 1.9" instead of the 2" I ordered.:laughing:

I hope everyone gets more as the rest of the storm moves through. I feel very lucky this morning to look out on a very wet garden, yard, and ponds that are really looking like ponds. What a great way to start the month of June. It must have got the critters going too. This morning when I went out to check my gage, I scared away two big does and one turkey hen from my feeder. The does didn't come back, but the hen was back in 10 minutes to finish her breakfast.

Something went swimming in my pool. All my animals are dry, but the frog pad was pulled from the side and there is a wet line going out of the pool by the ladder. HMMM? I wonder what the coyotes chased into the pool? I have the ladder at an angle, a ramp and a frog pad. Also the pool has a 3' dry moat around it, except by the ladder, so far there have beed no dead animals to fish out.

Oh! Well, in that case, Thank you kindly!

My bull was feeling his "Cheerios" this morning. Running and bucking like he is a small calf. Sure not turning my back on him today! Horses snorted for a couple of minutes, then went back to grazing. :laughing:

Well got .47 and about that much sleep:laughing:. May have to try a nap this afternoon.

Weather says 80% this afternoon in Allen, I've sleeping, has anyone heard if the rain is supposed to "fire" back up? Radar shows almost nothing right now.

Hot and dry here. Started to cloud up at lunchtime, making my daily ride tolerable. Sun's back out and the temp has risen quickly to 97. Unless it builds back up again, I suspect we'll hit triple digits in the next hour.

1-1/4" is pretty darn good. On the news some got like Jim, close to 2"!!

Me not near that!. I did discover squash bugs in the garden I guess another dose of Spinosad is in order after this rain
