Rain

After a few hot and humid days, we finally got the rain we've needed for so long. Everywhere you look, the grass has turned to straw. I've been watering my annuals, but the perennials and the grass were long overdue for a soaking. I heard a couple of storms pass by while I was at work (25 miles away), but my house seems to be in a dry zone, so I wasn't convinced it rained at home. Fortunately, it did, and it looks like we'll have more tonight. Unfortunately, tonight is when the big Detroit fireworks were scheduled for, and they may have to be moved for the first time in five years. Hopefully, the temperature will allow it to cool down below 80 degrees in the house so I can sleep tonight!
