Jounrnal entry 13 RAIN

Oh what a great Saturday it is. It is storming outside my window at the moment. I love it! Thunder and lightening filling the sky. Rain pouring down out of the clouds. Very nice indeed. We need more rain for sure. I know this is a topic we have all probably gone over, how dry and hot it is and how we need rain. I am happy to get to spend this day relaxing at home with my daughter and doing a little homework while we listen to it rain. Hopefully this rain fills up the creeks around here and the river. We love going to the river and creek to swim but lately there hasn't been much water to swim in. We haven't gotten to enjoy floating on the river much this year either. My family has the outdoors and floating the river in there blood. It is a big part of our summer lives. But this year it came to an end pretty early. Maybe tomorrow I can take my daughter and take a nice hike near the river and see the water flowing. Today will be spent relaxing and reading a book while it rains. Oh the joys of summer. Summer will be over too soon.
