Dear Sunday Letter readers,
Praise be! In the past few days we’ve experienced a reprieve from this summer’s horribly hot and dry weather. Yes, finally, much-needed rain moved across the state; the rumble of thunder has never been so welcome to my ears.
This morning, there’s a chance for more rain.
Not gonna lie—the past week two weeks have been extra tough. No matter how much water we gave our plants, many remained parched and stressed. It had become so dry and hot the tree frogs had stopped singing at night. And we humans pretending to be in charge of things? The balance of our good humor had long evaporated with summer’s dew.
One decent rain sure makes all the difference.
