My tress and bushes needed a good drink too. <BR/>If I can, I like to walk in the rain. <BR/>SherryQhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02473455565144414399noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27765182.post-84830558135000067722007-08-09T14:38:00.000-05:002007-08-09T14:38:00.000-05:00We have had a day of glorious rain as well & our g...We have had a day of glorious rain as well & our garden is full of happy, singing birds!

Hope you are drinking lots of water and staying cool.<BR/>I love falling asleep to the sound of rain. It is comforting.<BR/>I know it is summer in the mid-west and heat and humidity are part of that. I just cannot go with out rain. I like cloudy days!<BR/>We also have the heat advisories.<BR/>Maybe Sprite can send some rains to you too.

I took the "anger approach, the not fair, whinny child scream, approach" Next time I will remember to be gracious and love the storm to me. I guess I am still a bit human!<BR/>I really, really wanted the rain!<BR/>You are so kind.<BR/>Thank you,<BR/>SherryQhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02473455565144414399noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27765182.post-9330643089555148922007-08-09T14:02:00.000-05:002007-08-09T14:02:00.000-05:00We also got an afternoon of rain and I swear I cou...We also got an afternoon of rain and I swear I could see the garden turn a bright green and all the flowers were <BR/>singing ~YIPEE!!!~ I swear I could hear them and today we have none rain that is and we need MORE!! waiting for rain NGNaturegirlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00177418253271097079noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27765182.post-63850271685164915242007-08-09T14:00:00.000-05:002007-08-09T14:00:00.000-05:00Dear Mary,I saw the storm head east.

It was a torrential downpour.
