Actually, the rain has stopped for now (8:30 AM),but it rained hard all last night. Needless to say, I slept well. There's nothing like the sound of rain to help a person sleep. I am off to get my new truck checked out. No real issues. Just my 4k mile check-up. How is your Thursday shaping up? Any rain there?

We haven't had rain in so long now, we are under a burn ban (who burns? It's not allowed in any cities or towns around here.) and a fire warning. Plus, it's harvest season, and everything out there is very dry and crunchy. No rain expected for like at least another week...time will tell.

I hope harvest goes well. I had some local corn the other day. It was delicious! I wish @Xander6464 was still around. I'd like to hear how things are going in Iowa, where I went to College.

@TheHorse Illinois, as you know, has a ton of farmland. No matter where you live, you are often affected when it gets dry and dusty, it seems..

Glad you got some rain. But do you often get rain in early Autumn?

I hope your check- up is all positive. I envy you your rain. We get a few minutes now and then but no down pour that lasts. With being in a drought we sure could use it.

I hope no Californian ever complains about rain.

Well, rain can make us sleep well if we are inside of the house. If outside, it can make things very tough. Anyhow, hopefully you would get a thorough checkup of your truck. How is the condition of your knees?
