We Need Rain, Now!!!

[Marilyn]

Well, I came through a small shower on the way home from work today, but no rain at the office or at home. Did get to turn on the windshield wipers though, and they do still work. Perhaps there is some hope of a little moisture. There were two big grass fires the past two days that were in the city and could have gotten to homes, but thankfully the fire department managed to get control before they got really out of hand.

We are of course under a burn ban, and aireal fireworks are prohibited this 4th of July. Lots of folks are disappointed about that. Some of them are going to the beach to do their fireworks, so the beaches should be crowded Saturday night. Just hope no one gets hurt with so many more people there than usual.

Our city always has a large fire works display, and haven't heard anything about it this year at all, whether they are or are not holding it. Someone should really come out and say something about it.
