Blessed Rain

I awoke this morning to a gentle rain. There's a thunderstorm to our north and when I went outside to greet the day, I saw that this is no passing shower. We're getting a good rain and by my calculations the last time we got measurable rain was on June 21st. That's very nearly three weeks.

I guess that means I'll be mowing grass on Monday. That's good. The lawn can use the moisture.
