A rain puddle in a chair. One may consider this as an annoying part of a summer thunderstorm. I think it is simply a glorious sight.
Here in my part of the universe we've been a drought situation for the entire summer. It has only been in the last day or two that we've been seeing regular rain fall. It rained on Sunday, resulting in the rain barrel being replenished. It rained again last night, which was simply icing on the cake. With all this rain maybe by the end of the summer my lawn may resemble a lawn again, not a crunchy, brown straw field.
My vegetable plants love the rain. Although they been getting regular watering via either the rain barrel or the water hose, watering can only do so much. I think some of my plants, in particular my pepper plants, have grown an inch or two since Sunday. They are much greener and happier. Hopefully all this rain and less hot weather will have them producing peppers in the next week or so.
