Wordless Wednesday - Sky of Waves

The clouds were really great to watch yesterday - full of waves. Those waves started letting loose mid afternoon and by 7:00 this morning we were between 2" and 3" of rain. This on top of the 5" received Saturday. It has been so nice to watch and hear the rain, we have had so little over the past few years. On the other hand, homes have had water enter, roads have been washed out, schools cancelled (guess that is not a bad thing :)), and now river banks being watched, but no where near as bad as the Red River (our is expected to crest only 2 feet above flood stage)- for that we are all thankful!

Off to enjoy the sound of the rain . . . .

I love the sound of rain, just not the thunder and lightening that sometimes goes with it.

I love to watch the rain clouds and hear the rain hitting also...
it is very different here in Brazil compared to Veneauela...lots more rain here! Sometimes I so enjoy it, and the different weather, but sometimes it is just TOO much rain....
Anyways, I still try to enjoy every day no matter what!
