A Break In The Rains....

   This is our yards flooding from all the rains we have had here in central Indiana. Over 6 inches in a week. I know it's nothing compared to others. Always a huge pool by the mailbox.
   Yesterday the rain, was predicted for our area, moved east of us. later in the day the sun actually came out.
  By evening it was beautiful again.
A couple of golden finches lit in the hickory tree.  Sorry not such a great photo, but oh look at the blue of the sky. The pumps didn't run at all yesterday and I was so relieved. Hope all of you are safe.
  My dear blog family, I need your prayers. I can not tell why at this moment,. Someone I love is in great need of many prayers and good thoughts. I will be able to say more later this coming week. I am asking you all to please, please, say a prayer or send up a good thought for this person. Thank you so much. XO

  5. That is a lot of rain. And you did send it our way just like I asked. Yesterday was definitely a rain day and it's looking pretty dark today.

    I will definitely be praying for your loved one. God has him/her in His hands and will take care of the situation.

  6. Wow! You know where we live our yearly average rainfall is 6 inches a year. I can't imagine 6 in one day. Well, once it stops raining your soil should be perfect for gardening :)
    Here's wishing you a warm and dry week ahead.
