Sweet Rain at Last

Well, the rain finally came. We had such a wet May, but since the beginning of June, it's been very dry. In fact, we're now several inches below normal for the summer, despite being above normal for the year. I ended up working late, which I didn't mind, and then enjoyed a nice rain through the remainder of the night. We ended up with 0.93 inches, which really hit the spot. It was especially timely, as I hung up my rain gauge just yesterday, which I discovered buried in a box in the garage.

As a side note, I'm now officially on vacation for the next 8 days. Woohoo! I'm so excited, I definitely needed some time off. We're heading to Chicago tomorrow, and will be back in town early next week.
