RAIN
When you pray for rain, you appreciate God's blessing when it comes. Last night we avoided the tornados and hail and about 2 a.m. we started getting some nice rain. This morning we had 2.6" in the guage and it is still raining. By 6 p.m. we had 3.0". And more rain is promised for tonight. Tomorrow we head for Fort Worth and will meet Mary Kathryn for lunch at Hedarys, if they are open then make Lou's 1:45 appointment with Dr. Siadati and maybe he can help her control her back pain. It is getting some better, but still a problem. She didn't sleep well last night. Maybe it will be better tonight.

She was cool this morning so I built a fire in the fireplace using the wood Jim brought from Sue's.

Thursday we go to Lubbock for the Texas Folklore Society meeting where Lou will be honored as one of the few Fellows of the society. Kathy, Keith, Valerie, Vanessa and Jon-Marc plan to come to the dinner Friday night. Several members have contacted us about being there. I hope Lou makes it without too much pain.
