Finally...

It seems as though the rain has finally stopped. Someone told me that there was a stretch there that it rained every day for 45 days someplace in Texas. There has been all kinds of flooding, and the mosquitoes are having a hey-day. It only means we haven't had to do much watering. And it also means that there's significantly more grass growing in our backyard. Not that that matters all that much at this point (more on that in the coming days...). Tim's mom house has had even more rain than we have: here are Tim and his mom contemplating her backyard--the yard was too wet even for the dogs to venture out in to it!
