Anxiously Waiting

We heard the rain was suppose to come late last night and were disappointed not to have been awakened during the night from storms. At 5:00am, just as soon as it was light enough to see outside, we were again disappointed not to find any dampness on the ground. It is now nearing 7:00am and still no showers. Do we sound desperate? I believe all farmers in the area are waiting as anxiously as we are for this much needed rain. The fields are dry, dust is abundant and flying around enough to remind the old timers of the dust bowls of the 1930s. We had to cancel our 10:00am appointment with Dr. Hoerr on Monday. Karin has vaulting at that time. We now have an 8:00am appointment on Monday. As long as we get right in and out with the 3 mares getting ultrasounds we will be back in time. The pony paddock needs a new round bale. They were square baled last night and again this morning.
