Good Things About The Rain

VIEW FROM OUR BACKYARD

As much as I hate driving in the rain it has it's benefits. One thing it's replenishes the water table and as many of you know we use a well so that's good to know we will have plenty of water for the year. The second thing is the green everywhere. When it rains the hillsides get this thin layer of green moss/grass and it's just beautiful. 9 months out of the year we get to look at a very brown landscape (though still beautiful) it's drab and with winter rains we get green and then spring brings pretty orange and yellow weeds.. but they're pretty :)
