Texas Spring/Summer Thread

Good rain last night with some thunder and lightning on the front edge. Rain gauge showed about 2" this AM.

We got another thunderstorm last night and it dumped about an inch of much needled rain.
I haven't even started my lawn mower yet this year--should have been mowing since February.
We average almost 36 inches of a year here and have only a couple of inches cumulative so far.

We got another 3/4 inch of rain this morning. Forecast was another 2 inches. So Yippee.

Skipped us again. We're just west of Bastrop.
That puts you at about 5 inches, nice.
I expect a Memorial day flood since we seem to get feast or famine.

Can you put "west of Bastrop" in your profile. That way when we forget where you are located, we won't have to hunt thru old posts.
hugs, Brandi

We have already mowed 4 times this year.

I was a member of the Cloudcroft FB group for years. They did a survey of the members and I believe it was 86% of them moved there full time from Texas. It would be very amusing to me to see just how many people living statewide in NM came there from Texas.

Jack,
I am so embarrassed. I just realized it was you that posted this. How are Y'all doing?
hugs, Brandi

We are doing good, wishing we had more rain. Though we did get about an inch from all of the storms around us lately. I have not cut the grass once here this year.

Isn't 'west of Bastrop' just Austin?

Texas is so big I tend to forget there are quite a few miles between dots on the map.

West of Bastrop is the Austin airport and no towns between but some nice country areas.

I was joking. I've made the run east of Austin many times along 130. It is starting to grow with Tesla moving in, but yes, there is a lot of space between the two.
