The rain started in the middle of the night and kept on raining all day long. Sometimes the rain came down hard, which reminded me of being in Texas. It is still raining now, but now just drizzling. Everyone here is delighted with the rain. When we arrived yesterday, the creek was not running but not now. Both the pond and the creek are full of water.
This house is a wonderful place to be on a rainy day. The windows give you views of the rain in all directions and the metal roof makes the sounds of the rain feel as if the rain is right beside you. I could sit in the corner, snug as a bug in a rug and both see and hear the rain almost as if right outside, except I was dry.
Today, I saw our friends the Jays. They are happy with their season of farming. All the barns are full of hay along with the sheds and the corn crib. There is more hay to be cut but they have nowhere to put it. After a day or two of sunshine, they will cut the corn and sorghum to make for silage for the cattle this winter. But they were very happy with the almost three inches of rain today. There is something nice about a day in the rain.
