Today I Felt Like a Fish

It has been a very dry August and September forcing me to add water to both ponds about twice a week. Finally the rain came yesterday morning and it didn't stop until late this afternoon. All total we had almost 3 inches of rain which overflowed both ponds bringing much needed fresh water and flushing some of the contaminated water from the pond. The goldfish tend to stay near the bottom of the pond in the heavy rain so we didn't see much of them. So why did I feel like a fish; this afternoon I attended the College of William & Mary football game in a steady rainstorm. It has been a long time since I sat in the rain for 4 hours but at least William & Mary won so that made it worthwhile.
