We need the rain

Got up a little before 6AM to some pretty hard rain and a lot of wind.  That has been the way morning has gone here.  We have a 72% chance all day.  I hope that maybe if we have a break, I can get out and finish trimming the crepes in the back side yard, chop up the trimmings and put them into my firepit to await my first pitfire of the season.  I'm ready for that.  My back yard is a mess and needs cleaned.  There is a defunct water heater out there that I hope makes it into a refuge recepticle somewhere soon.  Some shopping, door making, and maybe a little personal studio time are in the 'suppose' column for today, since it appears to be a washout.  We need the rain: I will give thanks.  Blessings, friends.
