the sounds of spring...

the spring rains have come...
I can hear the rain hitting the roof ...

inches of rain over night and this morning.

This pic shows the flooding up to the edge of the road:

 and more rain, so higher flooding...

with water across the road...

There's a tile under the road in our front yard.

Just too much rain in too little time,

so no where for all that rain to go all at once.

As the rains calm this morning,

the spring peepers start singing

(click here to hear the spring peeper).
These peepers start competing with each other
and soon it is almost a cacophony of sound...

but I'm sure that means the rains have stopped...

at least for a little while.

Happy last week of April to you!
