We have been blessed with a very wet spring. That brings lots of wildflowers, green rolling hills, beautiful skies, and wonderful smells and sounds. These storms roll-in in the mid to late afternoons, last for 30 minutes or so and continue on their way. The storm that blew in Monday dumped 1.25" of rain in 30 minutes! It is crazy the amount of water that can fall from the sky in such a short time.

| Close up of the flame. They are letting the excess natural gas burn off. At night one of these will light everything up like it is dusk not midnight. We have 4 within one mile from our house. |
