We got another 2.5” of rain today, per my rain gauge. Amazingly, it did NOT rain on our Family Reunion, but after that was over, Beau wanted to see a cousin that was in town but couldn’t make it to the reunion and while we were at the B&B where she was staying, the tornado sirens went off and the sky opened up and it was pretty awful. We were minutes away from heading to the basement. The cousin lives in Nebraska, so she was relatively unfazed, LOL!
On the way home the sky was pitch black and super scary looking. We parked the truck and RAN for the house - the rain was torrential and the wind was close to 20 MPH! We were soaked running up the steps to the house, but we survived. ;) And then it all cleared up and we had a gorgeous sunset. :)
This Spring is really one for the books. So. Much. Rain! Send it to Africa, God! We don’t need it ALL to fall here! ;)
I realized after you posted about your family reunion that my next door neighbor headed to Wisconsin on Friday for a family reunion on her husband’s side. You didn’t have anyone there from central Indiana, did you? Wouldn’t that be a hoot to find out that you actually know someone who knows someone that you post with on FR? It would make it a small world, indeed!
I was watching the radar yesterday and thought about your party. Your weather usually makes it over the lake and dumps on west Michigan.

Happy ending for hunting dogs!
All you need is a 100,000 gallon cistern and you could fill it from roof rain.
