Glad it’s been a good weekend there. I don’t hear any whining - LOL - so it must not be too hot there.

I do hear ya on night owls having a hard time getting up early. Two days in a row each weekend hurts. I’m dragging tonight.
But it was a fun weekend at the museum, though slow. Fridays are generally slow but we expected today to be slow as well due to the rain. It was.

No flooding issues here but northwest of Nashville was hammered. When they showed the precipitation map on the news, there were colors I do recall seeing before. Some areas got 17 inches ..... today! As of now, they say 10 people died and 20 more are missing. Very sad situation. The videos of flooding they’ve been showing tonight are awful.
Our rain was a slow, gentle rain this morning and afternoon and that’s what we needed. It all soaked in. It’s been heavy tonight and when it stops I’ll check the rain gauge to see what out grand total is.

No whining! It was in the high 80s. I can certainly live with that. LOL! We got 1 1/2” of rain on [I think] Wednesday. It was hard and long and wonderful!

I did hear about the casualties from the flooding. Terrible! I’m glad that kind of rain didn’t reach you. Good that you had a good time at the museum. What’s not to love! :)
