Heavy rain at my house this morning—a gully washer. Granddaughter Shelby and grandson Elijah saw me outside taking pictures of it and couldn’t resist playing in the mini-river rushing down the street after the downpour. Rain is such a beautiful and rare sight these days that we all stop what we’re doing and stare at it whenever it does start to fall. (And take pictures of it….)

Awesome sunset over the Wal-Mart parking lot this evening. There was no escaping the light poles, unfortunately. Don’t they look like those long-necked, bug-eyed aliens in ‘War Of The Worlds’? Hope your Monday had a silver lining.

Grandson Knox kicks back while Granny checks out Facebook. He’s fascinated by the computer, no matter what is on the screen.

It is no use to grumble and complain; It's just as cheap and easy to rejoice; When God sorts out the weather and sends rain - Why, rain's my choice.

What a beautiful sight after weeks without rain! Let’s give God the glory!

Splish Splash! Grandson Knox enjoyed some pool time this afternoon in the hundred degree heat. He had the best time kicking and splashing and trying to slide over the side of the pool. Too bad there wasn’t room for the rest of us.
Happy TGIF, everyone!
