Rainy Day

We had quite a big storm overnight, although I slept through it all.  A small chestnut tree was uprooted just up the road from here, blocking our route on Rick's morning walk.  Some rain came down too; Paul's favourite gardening shoes in the porch got soaked.  It's been raining on and off all day, the parched ground is just soaking it up.

I took advantage of the rainy day to finish sewing Rick's kennel.  It was quite a wrestling match with the sewing machine but the repairs are all complete, ready for his next expedition.

  1. The second picture could easily invite lurid comments but being a cultured Yorkshire gentleman I refuse to stoop so low.

    1. Sun's out again here. No more rain forecast but cooler temperatures.

  3. Light showers here but that's all - not enough to do any good.

  4. Not enough rain for Cepes. When I got up yesterday (5 am) the lightning was still going on in the West. It was continuous, and very beautiful. At that hour I don't suppose many saw it. I had a blood test at 6 am.

    1. 6 am for a blood test? Wow, that's what I call an early start.

  5. Do tell Paul that the kennel is not a playground for him !
