Ray’s Rainfall Update - Day 128, DY 2

More free water! Makes me want to sing!

The Moon belongs to everyone.
The best things in life are free.
La, la, la!

Uh oh. That’s all I can remember of that ditty.

We got a little rain last night.
The pets ran under the bed.
We all got spooked by the terrible storm
when the pets ran under the bed.

When the pets all hide in the closet
Don’t shut that closet door.
Fer if ye ferget yer pets er in the closet
Ye shall pet those pets no more.

The pets all climbed in the bathtub.
The safest place to get.
When the thunder booms and the whole house shakes
it’s the safest place to get.

Amusing, is it not, that the pets, during a storm, head for all the places in the house you have been told to go yourself. That’s right. The local weatherman has just interrupted your favorite TV program for the fourth time in 15 minutes. The weatherman’s message, If you want to survive, better go get in the bathtub. Be sure to haul your mattress into the comfort station. Once you are in the bathtub, pull the mattress into position, then duck and cover in the bathtub under the mattress. Only in this posture are you liable to survive the terrible approaching storm.

But what is the new all important rainfall total? Well, let’s just sum that puppy up. 5.17" + 1.2" = 7.17". Pitiful, yet less pitiful than formerly.
