But two days ago we actually did get about 1/2 hour of good hard rain. And with it came about 2 min. of gale force winds. We couldn't even see our fence from our kitchen because the wind was whipping the rain around so hard. It was crazy. And when it cleared up we saw this.
There are two more sections in the front that are close to coming up too. Matt's nailed up two sections in the front and our backdoor neighbors fixed the one in their yard. We have two sections in the back (that border a house that was just barely foreclosed on) that are still down. But I'm still glad we got some rain. I'll even still pray for rain. Maybe I'll just pray for less destructive rain.

Yeah, rain here does awful crazy things, too. The last big storm we had took down more than its fair share of power lines, not to mention completely flooded the streets. It makes to really look forward to the fall batch of tornados and severe thunderstorms...

I think part of the problem is we just don't feel the same passion about rain that folks did a hundred years ago. For us, water shortage is an abstract. No batter how bad the newspaper calls it, it still comes out of the faucet. Our world is designed to minimize the need for faith....
