The arroyo collected water after last nights rain, a first time for me to see water there in the arroyo. That also brings another event, frogs singing. That was aloud sound this morning pulling up at the laundry building.

Mens coffee and a water committee meeting every Tuesday morning, coffee at nine water at ten and yes they do overlap. Coffee starts early and we start talking water committee early. We just cannot keep it separate. Got some pictures of the locals just outside the cattle guard today.

After lunch, Thunder shower received, the rain came for about half an hour a hard downpour, .6 inches of rain, nice that we got most of the outside deck work complete last week.
