We had another downpour and received 2.4 inches the first time (it rained more later). I'm thankful we live on the top of an Arkansas mountain, so no real flooding, but enough rain to keep everything green, especially the trees that give us oxygen as well as beauty, and the mountains look like dense carpets.
The weather cleared Saturday, and the annual hay ride at the Sugar Hill Church was fully enjoyed, though much longer than usual. Later the cook-out was enjoyed, so it ended later than expected. Evidently those who stayed for it all, slept in the next morning, because attendance for Sunday School was scarce; but they all came for morning service, making almost a full house and a good service.
