It has RAINED on Oklahoma!

It has rained on us and what a blessing it is!  Almost 2"....that is more rain than we've rec'd in a very long time.  What a BLESSING!  Our pond is full, our cattle are clean and our sheep are closer to white than they've been all summer long!  AND our little alfalfa plants just might make it!  I am happy as a clam!  Pleased as poke!

Happy for you.... gives everyone something to look forward to now.  I know it is far from recovering from the long summer, but it is sure a start.

That is wonderful, I do hope you get more rains. I has to be so depressing when the rains stop for that long.

Re: It has RAINED on Oklahoma!

Well, no, but I AM thankful!!!  I don't think people realize just how dry we are, ponds here were completely dry, people sold catttle b/c they had NO water, our grass is down to the dirt....but now I can see water in the pond norht of our house, our completely dry ponds now have a tiny bit in them, it is so good to have some water!  We take too much for granted!  Hope you all have a great day, am making choc pie to take to a neighbor who was hit by a drunk driver this am...yes this morning!  They should steer drunk drivers!

Re: It has RAINED on Oklahoma!

Have been distracted more than a little bit lately, but did see some newsnstory about towns in Texas that will run out of water completely by Christmas. I think one was Grosbeck. Anyone know if that area got any of this rain? Happy for Merryjon and their cows!!!!

Re: It has RAINED on Oklahoma!

Just wondering if you are feeling the earthquakes where you are. I know we have felt them, but very little. Its really been a crazy weather year.

Re: It has RAINED on Oklahoma!

My cousin from Lousiana asked me about an earthquake yesterday...haven't felt a thing, any rumbling around here is always blamed on Ft. Sill.
