Wasn't it just wonderful! We got about 1 1/2 inches, and it's muddy! What a blessing!

So glad you have some much needed rain....it's been a long time and I'm sure you're doing the happy dance.

We got three inches here and loved every drop. Hope for more in the near future. Thanks for all who have prayed for Texas and all the wildfires.

I received over 6 1/2" of rain in my area southwest of DFW.
That's a guestimate as my rain gauge was full to the brim and the float was as high as it would go. Loved seeing every drop of it. Maybe the rain has killed off all the grasshoppers who have kept so much of my green plants stripped this summer. The hoppers have been eating things thet weren't suppose to bother.

I know in many parts of the country right now Rain is a much welcomed weather pattern, but here in the PNW it is still a four letter word. I'm want more sun and warmth for a few more weeks.
But I am happy for those of you who really need and want it.

I'm so happy for you Texans. My mother and brother live in TX and I was so pleased when she told me last night on the phone that it was raining and had been all day.

I got close to 3 inches yesterday. It was a beautiful sight. We haven't had any real rain since spring.

We were vendors at a Quilt Show in Northern Texas this past Saturday, and had to breakdown and load up in the rain. Then, we had to wait until Sunday afternoon for the rain to quit so we could unload and stow.

The show was heavily attended, and I didn’t hear one complaint about the rain. Actually, it was kind of nice to see the umbrellas stacked in the entryway for a change!
