Soggy Summer Day
South Texas is not known for its moist summers, although with the weird weather patterns we’re seeing across the globe these days, I’ve lost track of what “normal” is.
About a week ago, the weather pundits began warning of severe flooding rains. Of course, it took five days longer than they predicted to occur, but sure enough yesterday morning we awoke to the “river” running in the greenbelt behind our house. No danger, and kind of a perk really — for a day or so, our backyard deck overlooks lush riverfront property, rather than an overgrown greenbelt!
