Soggy

Rain, rain go away, come again some other day.

Lush Azalea Shrubs and the Rain Gauge
I forgot to empty the rain gauge last night, so I was lucky it didn't overflow. It had 4" in it (when it was standing up straight) after the rain quit this morning. But we're grateful that the water is running where it's supposed to run and we cleaned out the eaves gutters last week during a dry day. And the grass seed that didn't wash away is producing a fine stand, so that's another good thing. It's downright cold now - in the 40s - but I'm sure we'll be singing a different song in July and August. Tennessee is like Iowa - always an opportunity to complain about the weather!
