2007 marked one of the wettest Spring seasons on record. By the end of May, we had over 20 inches and it is shaping up to be over 25 by the end of June. What a stark contrast to 2006 at the same time.
It rained off and on all day yesterday as well as all night last night. Walking the dog(s) was impossible unless we all wanted to get soaked, so The Golden had to settle for a quick trip out in the yard (she still got soaked) while little man stayed in...holding it until the weather broke. yesterday he held it for 16 hours before he let me take him out. While he was not thrilled to be in the wet mess, he did his business and trotted quickly back to the house with me.
Smart dog.
Yesterday work was slow, but I am not complaining since we will not doubt have plenty of fires during the month end/quarterly end period in a few days. That is usually the way it works. I guess the only good thing is that Europe is on Midsummer and they will have a lot less people using the system, which should keep the major issues from occurring as much during that time.
I was asked by one of my European colleagues when the US took it's midsummer and I told him at age 65. he did not get the joke. Many Europeans take 2-4 weeks off in a row during the summer and do no work related activities at all, unlike American's who tend to take too little vacation and end up working part (if not all) of it anyway.
The drive to work was a soggy one...Pecan Hollow was under water again...it happens every time we get heavy rain.
