@Esperanza. Doing fine here. Got another 2 1/2" of rain without any sides! I know it sounds strange, but I'm happy to get it. It's just really hard for my particular spot to get too much. A combo of soil types and places to drain, I guess. The leon river cuts the place in half and it got up to half full, so I was sorta glad the water gaps hadn't been repaired yet! There was a lot more rain east of my location I think. It's been years since I've seen everything so green. If regular rain stops and all that vegetation dries up, we'll be in fire danger. For this area, I think that is going to inevitable. If not from too long without rain, then when frost kills the growth. Looks like it's going to be a banner year for broom weeds in the area. They burn easily and fast when conditions are right. I hope we keep getting regular rainfall to keep the fire hazard to a minimum and keep things growing.
