May Showers

After a fairly dry April, the skies have opened up during May.  Driving home from a visit at a nursing home yesterday,  the rain came down extremely hard, hard enough for people to slow down to 30-35mph on a 55mph highway.

When ever it rains hard, our basement feels that a nice trickle or two of water is appropriate.  Fortunately, the temperature has increased downstairs so that the dehumidifier works.  I turn on a fan in the direction of the streams of water and turn on the dehumidifier.  Of course, the same boxes that don't have the sense to move out of the way of the water get wet again!

Since there was lightning this morning, I took the car into the Y.  Rain tends to break up my routine!

Gas has decreased $0.10 a gallon at the place I bought it on Thursday!
