The Lord Hath Rained Down Mercy

Oh, didn't it rain, children! All night, it did -- we got almost 1-1/2 inches in our mountains, thanks be to God -- and all overnight. We woke to sunshine breaking through in the east, and big scudding clouds scooting on out of here. To step out on the deck with our first coffee and sniff that wet-pine air, was better than any drug. (Of course, just to bring you back to earthen reality, John opened the door, sniffed, and said, "Ah yes, the moldiness!" -- he's so romantic, don't you think?)

Now, the day dawns brighter and brighter as 9 AM approaches; and I'm going out to take some pictures of this blessing.

So Teri's visit was ... precipitous?

Daddy just shouldn't be allowed to stick his nose out of doors - last time that happened to me, he slammed the door on my date (which turned out to be the correct way to treat THAT dog, but I didn't know it at the time).
