Much needed rain

Sunday night and most of Monday it rained here. We probably got between one and two inches and it came down in the way that it soaks in. Speaking of soaking, I sure got soaked. Driving around in a golf cart without any sides tends to get you wet, if it is raining. Three changes of clothes later, the sun came out and all was well. We were so glad to see the rain as this area has been in a severe drought for the past year and a half.

One guy called the office as he could not get out of his coach because of the depth of the water that had collected. I visited him and tried to get the water to drain off and then built him a plank bridge to enable him to get out. I kidded with him as he seemed to have a sense of humor about the whole situation and asked him if his name was Noah and could he swim. This morning he had taken his plank bridge down and I guess I had better retrieve the pieces to be used the next time it rains a lot. Thanks for the soaking rain and happy travels.
