That was a surprise! It was supposed to rain yesterday evening but hadn’t before we went to bed. This morning it was cooler that normal so I thought it would be a good time to go out and plant my mums. Vince was out in the garage working on some lights he’s putting up outside. I got the hoe was going to clean up the few weeds that have started growing where I wanted to plant the mums. Vince said he was fixing to go water the new trees before it got too hot. Vince got started and was walking back to the garage. I was busy getting my mums all out to near where I was going to plant. Vince said “Did it rain last night?” I said “I don’t know.” I looked over to where the loose dirt was and I said “It looks like the ground is wet.” Vince said “The water is running off when I squirt it around the trees.” He came in to check the rain gauge.
It rained 1.09″ sometime during the night. Neither of us even knew it had rained. That was funny.
Now we get to do other things – no need to water the trees and it’s too wet to plant anything today. I know what I’ll be doing – cross stitching!
