We have had so much rain this summer. In an effort to look on the bright side lets share what we all love about the rain. My favorite things to do are to go puddle jumping, go for a run, work in the garden (to ensure being really muddy when I'm done) and watch a thunderstorm roll in off the lake. I love the drama of it all. The other bonus is I don't have to water my garden as much.
