Weekend Update - Mid July

We like having patterns. We started with a rainy patch that last nearly 35 days, then on to a 100 degrees or better with no rain for several days in a row. Now we are enjoying thunderstorms in the afternoons, leaving the gutters clogged, water in the basement.

Friday afternoon we got one of those quick thunderstorms. The sun was still shining, making driving really hard - each droplet was a rainbow and it was blindingly bright.

Saturday we worked on this and that, housewife chores, cleaned stalls and spread manure. We then went to a crab feast!

Later on in the evening it rained, again, getting nearly two inches of rain within an hour and a half. Seems also to be breaking the spell of high heat.
