Fran's Friday Forum...Rain...Rain...Go Away...!!!

Remember the old kids refrain, "Rain, rain, go away, come again another day, little _ _ _ _ _ wants to play"...???

As we got older we realized how valuable and important RAIN is to living...!!!

It's not accidental that in our English language 'rain' plays such a role in the meaning of such important words as...brain...drain...grain...train...all important concepts in the growth of society...

In fact we talk about 'brain drain', 'rain drain', and 'grain train'...equally important concepts in our historic development...

Just in our area of Southeastern Pennsylvania, we have experienced an unusually heavy rain year in 2009...causing everything to grow much faster...wheat, weeds, and wildflowers...and things like thistles, thorns, and thunders to be more abundant...!!!

If we are a patient people, we will appreciate the values of rain and also tolerate its inconveniences without complaining...

Of course, always remembering what the Church has taught for centuries...All Things In Moderation...!!!

Have a great family weekend...and refrain from strain...!!!

Fran.... I lived in WA State a long time ago, and I know about rain. :-) In your case, please send a couple of those rain clouds out our way. CA is always in a drought. Sigh

Bring on the rain. I haven't had to water any hedges except newly planted ones this year. My grass is green and my shrubs are not droopy.

Kat: I wouldn't want to be a rain expert...!!! LOL

Lenn: Ditto, but my beloved commercial Scag tractor has picked this year to go on the fritz...just got it back yesterday after over a month in the shop and it broke down again...!!! Hsssss...!!!

Thanks, Fran

Where there's rain there's color :)

Where there is color there is happiness:)

Fran, rain can be good in some years and similar to your area in Pennsylvania, North Texas had a "little" more rain this summer than our normal crispy fried 100 plus degrees. I enjoyed it at least seeing somewhat greener lawns vs. the brown stuff. Everything in cycles. It's good sometimes when we get those rains.

Sally: And color is good...except in my sock drawer...!!!

Alice: That's a colorful comment...!!! LOL

Gary: Variety is good to appease our boredom...!!!

Thanks, Fran

Maybe this is why this network has been named ActiveRain as they went thru the same thought process as you? Yesterday I was commenting on how green everything still is., It was a good rain year for us too

Charlie,

Rain has its pain also...!!! Thanks, Fran

One advantage to all the rain this summer is that I've never seen the grass and trees stay this green so late in the season!

Brian,

Yes, greener than green...!!! Maybe this is a good omen for the Eagles...!!! Thanks, Fran

Fran,

We just got the rain starting this morning. It has been about 3 weeks since it rained her and farmers really welcome God's blessings today. Me too, very good for my garden!

Mike,

The Lord's blessings often come like rain...!!! Thanks, Fran
