Rain, Rain...

If you noticed I stopped short of saying "go away" because after living in Texas for 22 years, I have come to know that rain in July is a precious commodity but this is getting a little ridiculous.

Average yearly rainfall in Dallas is 34.73 inches. As of July 4th we have had 35 inches. The average total for the entire month of January is 2 inches and through the 4th we have had 3.15 inches and it is raining as I write this.

One nice thing is that I don't know if we have had the temperature reach 95 yet so our electric bill and water bills have been very low.

Another plus is God was good enough to push the pause button on the rain yesterday so we could have a nice 4th of July. Shelley tells you all about it here.
