5+ Inches of RAIN

Despite a long sleepless night as the rain poured down from 2:30 to 5:30 in solid sheets, we are VERY thankful for all 5+ inches of rain we received last night.  The rain gauge worked great (see the bright orange disk at the top???, this was as close as I could get to it without getting into ankle deep water.

This is what the tank looked like after a full day of run-off.

It was much closer to the yard fence this morning, but it was too dark for pictures when we left for school.  People were surprised to see us, but we had very little traffic and no water in the road or anything unusual.

YEA GOD!!!! Thank You for the wonderful rain!!!!
