Rain, sweet rain...

I woke up at 4am this morning to the sound of rain! We haven't had any in two months, so this was indeed a *sweet* sound. It has continued off and on all day, which is the best kind to give our parched ground the good soaking it needs.

Sherman and Pat are the first of the clan members to arrive here today for our annual get together. They are in their moho, so they are staying at our RV park. We are heading over to Amy's house for dinner tonight. She's a good cook...promises brats and chicken on the grill...yumm. Dick will be smoking some fish so I can try making Ginger's smoked fish dip that is outstanding. I'll be in the kitchen a lot over the next few days. Stay tuned and I'll let y'all know what's cookin'!

Did y'all click over at the breast cancer site today? NO? Go do it!!! The link is on yesterday's pink post.

It rained most of last Friday night in Pittsburg. It was wonderful. I hope we get lots more rain.

Have fun on the clan get together. Those are always fun. The food all sounds yummy. Big hug. :)
