    Yesterday we had almost 4" of rain, and this morning we had 3/8" and it is still drizzling. Later I'll get out my paddle board and go look at the gardens. Just kidding, but I won't be in there for a couple of days, and then only if the weather is willing.
    My husband said he had always heard that a man's home was his castle, but he didn't know it sometimes came with a moat!

    That was a solid wall of water! I bet it felt tropical at times.

    thats a lot of water, Jane. I hear the Falcon reservoir is up by 4' since we left in Feb. please feel free to send all the extras towards Zapata..thye falcon reservoir was so low when we were there it was pitiful. people were riding 4 wheelers in places where there was water last year.

    Marlingardener, seems it's either feast or famine/ We could use
    more rain.
