Finally - some rain!! What we call a "frog strangler."

We haven't had any serious rain in months so this is truly welcome.

I read where all of Texas is in a drought, very high fire danger and temps in many areas over 100 F.
I bet with the high temps and rain, the humidity is probably unbearable. Looks like that custom mower is doing a darn good job. Stay cool. Bob

Well, perhaps you should be concerned, but if you stick to the high ground I'm betting you'll be OK.

It's been bad buddy, worse inland than here on the coast but still bad everywhere. I think we got about 1.5" (but we've got over a foot to make up), so this'll help. And yeah, it's been HOT - but, Lord willin', we'll be in California this time tomorrow to visit our daughter and . . . . to cool off.

Thanks, Heinrich. Maybe someday we can all get together and do just that.
