Wet

Was in Alabama for a few days and was supposed to come back Monday.  When we got up it was raining like crazy and the weather wasn't looking good for travel.  Not only that but a section of I85 had collapsed in Atlanta due to a fire under an overpass.  Ordinarily that's on the way home.  Some re-thinking had to be done as we watched the weather on TV.  Seems violent storms were in the path we were going to take.  Some research by our host produced a good route. Tuesday we left AL and headed home.  The sun was shining and all looked well.  The drive was longer than it would have been had we come the usual way but that was out of the question.  So we took a different route which was quite pleasant.  The roads were good and not crowded.  We saw some countryside we hadn't seen before.  Our only stops were for fuel.  Yesterday was different.  Rain and lots of it.  We've been in a drought so the rain is a good thing.  Just wish we hadn't gotten it all at once.  My pond is now definitely full but I won't go down there until someone can go with me.  Don't want to break my leg for a third time.
The weather this year has been very strange.  In the 70's in January and February.  March was a seesaw of warm and cold and it looks like April is going to be more of the same.  Doesn't look like it's going to get above 60 today.  Hope the sun stays out.
Y'all have a great day.

I think the weather has been strange all over the country. I'm glad you didn't have too much trouble getting home and that you finally got some rain!

You are right about waiting for company before going down to the pond. No more broken bones...please!
