It’s raining here in Lyndon again. Husband just came home from Ford LAP and said they really had a bad storm and heavy rain there. Not so bad here. The present storm is going west of us again.

FOX had the mayor on the phone....he said it rained 6.5 inches in one hour.

I cannot imagine that. Living in the desert, that's four years' worth of total precip.

Out here in the W. Texas desert....get 9 inches a year, but we managed to get 6 inches in July. It has been one wet month.

Reminds me of home in Kansas, with the spring flooding. Was nice...:)

Off topic - we spent a night in Pecos in mid June; what a depressed place. The only decent things were the museum and the surprisingly great Chinese restaurant.

I’m in Midland, which is luckily better. Still not the greatest, but oh well.

Stopped there for brekkies after leaving Abilene...Shoney's, IIRC. Very nice for a roadside tummy fillup. All in all, we loved Texas.
