As Fay Rains Down....

...I thought I'd share a few rainy weather pictures from earlier this month.  (A month, btw, that has been more rain-filled than usual.  Which is nice for August).

Our next door neighbor has a swale that runs from his backyard to the street.  It happens to be right next to our driveway.  So, after a good 2'ish day rain earlier this month, there was some good moving water there.  While Poodle just couldn't be bothered to come away from some random treasure map that she was drawing, I showed Tooter what happens when you drop a leaf into the little stream.  Oh, the joy!  He was king of the river!

Which, naturally, led to his claiming full dominion over the river and showing all who might question said dominion by planting his feet firmly in the swirling water.  Too bad he didn't have a flag.  (That was for Jmk).

Poodle came out later and was equally pleased with the coolness of sailing leaves down the running water.  She, however, fell victim to dead camera batteries and didn't get her experience saved for posterity.  But there was squealing and laughter.

We have kind, patient neighbors.  :-)
