We may have got .6", but not a heavy rain for sure, just nice and slow/steady. It was much needed and appreciated, unless you had Duck Commander 500 tickets. Gonna watch that race today when it comes on Fox.

Jim, I was going to ask you about them Bluebonnets, mine are in full bloom (bought them last week at a road side plant store:laughing: All 4 look good:D Went to Decatur Saturday and the BB and Indian paintbrush are really looking good for this Spring:thumbsup: If I had a shovel in the truck, I wouldn't have been able to keep the wife from going to the hooskou!!

I got .62 yesterday, so a 48 hr total of .70....Take what I can get.

We only got 2 tenths of an inch over the weekend.

Bluebonnets, in Manor, are being used for photo taking now.

We got Rebecca moved in. I rented a 6x12 Uhaul enclosed trailer, in case of the 40% rain forecast. My ex BIL arrived with bedroom suite and bedding from my MIL, so we had two trailers and all was done quickly. I bought Rebecca a new dishwasher for her house warming. I am here to tell you, it is a low water use machine and has circuit boards in it. All the wash cycles are foreign and so is the lid lock feature.

Manor is a good small, old, small town. Rebecca is 11.5 miles from the nearest Lowes in Austin. Manor just got a new super Walmart..........................with self checkout..........which I love.
hugs, Brandi

Mike,
We have a Walmart in Conroe by I-45, one in The Woodlands (by I-45) about 9 miles away, one in Spring (by I-45) another 8 or so miles from the Woodlands. They pop up where the crowds are.

Manor is really a suburb of Austin now. I gotta move.
hugs, Brandi

I don't need to buy groceries more often than once every 4-6 weeks, if that often. Have freezers and pantry, so could be 30 miles from grocer and be fine!

I guess for my general part of texas, I came in with the best total on the rain. Got 3/4" yesterday. Had a little shower pop up this afternoon, but not enough rain to even get the sidewalks wet.
