Rain Rain go away

Hi, The rain will not stop.All roads into our town are flooded, the cable is out so no TV but at least we have power. Our grandson tried out his new tricks he learn in karate out on his sister and found out the pocketbook she carries has a really good swing on it. The princess grandaughter has decided not to take soccer this year because they told her she had to wear sneakers not dress shoes, so she is going to try basketball. I went to one of her games and asked my daughter why does she have a water bottle around her waist, she told me that was her hairbrush.Have a great day Dianne HI DAD

... and was actually pretty sunny most of the day today. We have a section of land we only mow every other time on a higher setting. It had been in the "no mow" cycle before all of this. I had to put the deck on the tractor up for the first round. It still needs another go-round cuz it was quite wet underneath, as does the whole lawn for that matter.

I wish you luck with the grandaughter and sports. My guess, though, is that they won't allow dress shoes on the basketball court either Wink
