Let’s see what has happened; it rained some yesterday and last night, so I checked the rain gages this morning. You may have noticed that I said gages, which is a plural, meaning more than one rain gage. Each of the three gages had either, a little over or, a little les that ½ inch of rain. So, I averaged the amounts out to ½ inch for each gage, and that means, “we received 1.5 inches of rain total”. Nice rain for the ground!
Now that the rain has stopped, I hope to be able to mulch up the leaves from the pecan tree in the back yard. The leaves have been so sticky that I did not want to attempt to use the mower on them, I assumed they would stick to, and clogged up the mower. I hope the rain has washed the sticky off the fallen leaves.
I hope that at least one of you understand that we only received ½ inch of rain, the 1.5-inch rain was a joke, I know you know what a joke is, but we all know that one person doesn’t!
Allow me to convert to another topic; we were supposed to have a 7th grade football game at the home field today, for some reason it has been altered to an out-of-town game. To be honest, I don’t like the out-of-town games because, it makes it difficult or impossible to get back to Hewitt soon enough to go to the Bible study group meeting. I will make due with the time we have and enjoy the game, possibly make it to the meeting.
I need to get the Tres out for a walk this morning, now that it rained, there may be a lot of new smells for him. Don’t ask if I have already had a burrito for my breakfast, as I have, and a cup of coffee also.
We hope you have a good day, and we will visit with you next time you sign on to this odd ball blog!
Football fun, getting there not!
