Sweet summer rain.

It's been really dry here for some time. We've been watering the garden mornings and evenings. I woke up this morning to the rumblings of thunder. It's going to be in the 90's this week, so this will really help.

    GGPa Jim, It's been raining hard every night on this side of the mountain. Looking at the weather/news, I thought you were getting rain also. Al

    It's been a very cold and wet June here. Hopefully when summer arrives it doesn't just instantly turn all the extreme vegetation growth into massive fire fuel.

    Some will die in hot pursuit
    And fiery auto crashes
    Some will die in hot pursuit
    While sifting through my ashes
    Some will fall in love with life
    And drink it from a fountain
    That is pouring like an avalanche
    Coming down the mountain

    Our gentle rain rolled thru three o'clock am

    Took out some large tree limbs and our electric

    Last I saw 145k in Ohio with out power

    And it's the hottest day in a long timeheat index over a 100 and like being in a oven lol

    Dug out our old generator and a crap load of heavy extensoin cords

    Just found out our local substation got hammered as in wiped out looks like lightning smoked it

    they are having to truck in all new to be able to get our power back on

    Currently have a portabe sub station on route to get temporary power

    Looks like a trip to a gas station

    And a lot more work for me to get power to our well and water heater maybe dig out a window ac unit

    Could be a lot worse in so many ways.

    I am just glad that's all we have to deal with
