Thunder, Lightning and Rain!

It's a little after 4:00 AM. It rained very heavily for a while throughout the night. It was pouring! The thunderclaps were so loud that they brought back memories of when I was so frightened that it could only sleep if my mother was nearby. I hope that this isn't a precursor to a more serious weather condition to come.

I was thinking about the garden, though. Just when I thought we missed the heavy downpour days, we are blessed with the rains! I didn't get any reports yet that anything sprouted, and I wonder what will come up first.

This rain water is so much better than using the hose, and rain during the night really helps the plants grow. Anticipating a garden, waiting to savor its produce, is such an important feature of living healthy at home.

So, we'll see what's first to sprout.
