And the rains came down....

I've mentioned that I have a "wet weather stream" in my back yard. Generally, there is no more than a trickle of water running through it. In dry weather, there's no water.

There's enough moisture there to promote the growth of trees along its edges. And it's a nice place for kids to play (boats and dams and such) when it rains.

It rained last night.
Not hard... just steady.

When I went down to watch the kids Thursday morning while Jeni went to the dentist, I showed her the results of the night's rain to my back yard stream. I used my phone to take the pictures just before I left to go into Huntsville.

I asked if she wanted to bring the kids up to play....
She probably thinks it's too cold.
It probably is.
It's in the forties during the day.


By the way, that's the edge of the patio of my house to the right. That's how close the "stream" is to the house.
