Rain Part 2, May 20, 2009


Can you believe all this rain? We have been in a draught so long that I had forgotten that it could rain like it has been the last week. We are up to 12 inches of the stuff...and it started raining again at our house about 2:30 this afternoon.

The bummer of it was that we were scheduled to go out to Disney to meet one of Rod's old friends. Kevin is now a Baptist pastor in North Carolina, but, him and his wife still have family in Fernandina Beach. So they were down for a family vacation and decided to do the Disney thing with the whole family--on the rainiest week I can remember recently. Their oldest son is in the Marines. He just finished his second tour and is now headed into guard training where he will be stationed at embassies for the next 3-4 years. Quite the kid...and no surprise as the whole family is nice as can be.

It was fun hearing Rod and Kevin chat about all their "exploits" in Fern. LOL No, I won't tell you any details. But can I just say that it is a surprise they both turned out so good. And in the Pastor's words, "How did we NOT end up in jail!"
