Woke up about 5:15 to the house shaking--not sure if it was from wind--or the lightning and thunder--or all 3.

Looks like the Lord had decided to bless us with a little more rain.

It stands right now that this is the 8th wettest month of May on record and the month isn't over yet. This following February and April which were both in the top 10 wettest for those months and March which was the wettest March ever. It has been one wet four month stretch. I wish I could send some of this to others who need it because it is just going to waste here.

We just had our best rainfall since August of 2012.. past two days we have gotten almost 2".. Dont seem like much, but around here its quite a bit.
It might just save the hay season.

Emptied 5 1/2" from the rain gauge just now. Collected since 2 o'clock yesterday afternoon and still drenching us for quite a while forward it looks like.
Was pretty darn dry before it started.

All a four wheel drive is good for is getting you 50 feet farther than you have chain.

Had a break yesterday but looks like the bottom will fall out any minute this morning. I just don't need any more moisture right now.
