    It looks like it will be a quick hard rain but we'll take it.

    Lots of nice well water coming down, it's about time.

    Just had a big cloud burst. Man, that is appreciated. Looks like another storm right with it. Lucky this time. NO wind burst. Forecast for the Wk end is about the same.

    It finally stopped raining here, it was a medium soaking rain which we needed bad. Tomorrow and Sunday are suppose to be the heavy rain days with a possible 1.5 inches of rain.

    Yeah, I wish I could ride my bike. Stupid parts places sure like to take their time shipping in stock parts.

    I should be able to get the water pump seals and clutch/ case cover back on this weekend provided the USPS delivers s they say tomorrow.

    We got a decent amount of rain today here. Not nearly enough, but every bit counts. Still, other local towns and cities got a lot more rain than by my house. Some areas had flash flood watches.

    Dark now, but occasional tick tick on the stove's vent pipe. Still a drizzle with showers. Took the dogs out. Everything seems wet and there are puddles on the driveway. Good that it is wet overnight so the rain we got can be absorbed and not evaporate.
    Radar shows more on the way, but doubtful it will be anywhere near enough. But grateful for any rain we get.

    Hauled azz unloading the F250 before it hit. We got about 2" here in about 3 hours. Went to check the mail, came back up the road with the town maintenance crew checking the road. They said the road down a ways from us got washed out.

    .73" now today, and it's still coming down. It can keep going, as it's not a crazy downpour. It's supposed to continue until tomorrow am.

    Fine by me.:)

    It has started to sprinkle here now thewoodlands. A steady slow rain all day would be nice. I don't even want to see what the logging trails look like after they were skidding in the rain yesterday.

    :doh: I just saw the skidder bringing the chipper another load of logs. He wasn't working Saturdays before.

    Rain forecasted for today and tomorrow. We'll take it, but the grass hasn't been cut in over 3 weeks. I need to get out there!
