I swear, five gallon plastic buckets were falling out of the sky with it - I-240 was a five carlength visibility on the way back from Olive Branch Miss.

235 and 245 15's do NOT like pooled water on the road edges either. I nearly pasted myself to three seperate guardrails...

AND I found a roof leak when I got home. It ain't a new one either. I don't think I want to go into that much - it helps if you don't marry an ignorant psychopath.

The pups were near drowned and terrified - reconstruction of the little fuzzy ones housing situation took me more time than dealing with the dang roof. They still soaked, but at least it's warm outside.

So how was YOUR saturday, BY GOLLY!

 

I was on the lake when the rain hit. You can guess how my day went. Wet.

 

We barely got anything over hear in McNairy county. A few passing showers and that was it. But at least it knocked some of the pollen out the air.

 

I got a inch of rain at my house. I think the south part of the city got more. It was raining much harder at Lakeview than it was in Collierville. We stayed on the lake a little too long & got soaked. Why do the fish start to bite right before the rain falls?

 

The theory is that the rain drives oxygen into the surface water, and the fish come up for (?) "FRESH AIR".

Next step in the cycle is they become more active. There is also a lot of food dropped on the surface from the rain. Bugs especially.

So in a nutshell - shortly after it begins to rain, it's time to try surface fishing!

Good time to drop a cricket or two with a light hook on the water and see what happens.

And did you know...

A very small dot of crazy glue on a hook shank will stick it to a cricket!

 

it come a dang flood at my house ....i wish i had some gas in my truck ..MUD !!!

 

We'll I was mowing the yard. I was already sweating like a hank so I just kept mowing. It was nice for a change. I did learn one thing though, no one will bother you when you are outside working in the rain!!!!!

 

I caused the rain. Everytime I take my boat out it rains. Sorry Wolfie I'll warn you next time.

 

Now explain about me getting home just barely in time to rescue the puppies from the hail that fell tonight...

WHO THE HECK CAUSED THAT ONE?

Howling terriffied little ones, needing shelter and getting it just in the nick of time...

I'm tempted to pick one and let it sleep with me tonight. But I'm not tempted to wake up to a pile of puppy poo next to me...
