Rain!

Can you believe, it actually rained and we walked in it this morning and it felt very good. The temperature dropped 15 degrees and the humidity rose 30--feels good and the American flag was retrieved from the front deck and is drying in my bathroom!
My ears are glued to the Israeli-Lebanon situation and I have downloaded more information for my growing portfolio on the mideast crisis and the story of Israel's history. Since I am teaching a lesson this Sunday on the downfall of Israel in 850 BC, it all relates and is interesting to see the way the borders have changed in the last 2800 plus years. It is quite a story but it is so sad what is happening to the civilians...and it will only get worse I am afraid.
The big news is I put a new automatic watering system (actually I had to scan the directions and print them at 200 percent--how can anyone read that small, small print?) onto my front and back faucets and they actually work! I just have to water the trees and bushes I planted and I can actually stand on my decks and handle that with a far reaching hose...yea.
