Morning Civatar! We had a nice little thunderstorm move thru with a good rain shower, but it is finally moving out, and the sun is starting to shine. Not sure if more storms will come thru today, but there is a chance of rain pretty much every day this upcoming week. Tomorrow will most likely be lawn mowing day if/when things dry up enough. A few…Read more

Morning Civatar, Happy Saturday! Rain is supposed to move in today sometime. There were rumbles of thunder last night and if it rained, it was scarce. I am waiting on an order to arrive and then I will see what kind of day it will be.
