No rain today. I was so surprised at what I called a bit of rain last night turned out to be a bit over 7/10”! Pleasantly surprised!

Wow. if the corn is nearly over YOUR head, it’s darn tall! LOL! Glad you’ve gotten some more rain there! Did Shags stay in his porch bed?

Well, pooey! I'd hoped you'd gotten a little more rain but .7 is great for y'all. Every little bit counts!

We've gotten 3.2 inches today and they say there's more in store tomorrow. Corn loves rain and it grows fast when it gets a good dose. Our corn is about as tall now as it was in this pic ...

This pic was taken about 2 weeks later - same field ...

We didn't get as much rain that year so I figure with the deluges today and what we'll get tomorrow, this stuff is gonna shoot up faster. Might not be quite as tall as in the 2nd pic but it'll be close to the top of my noggin.

Shags and the other cats spent a lot of the afternoon on the back porch. The others are in now but Shags is in his kitteh bed, snug and dry.
