Too Much Rain...

Only a couple of weeks ago everything was dry and needed rain. We have gotten rain since. A bit too much rain at times. Our trout stream was too high to cross on Memorial Day, though we still got to fish two holes and had our breakfast sandwiches on the bank in honor of Joe's dad. The below picture shows the road we take to and from the river that's been flooded by the beaver dam. This weekend turned to be another wet one, and Joe didn't get out fishing. Possibly the water level got even higher.

On this moist Sunday we mostly lounged around at home. We watched an action-packed movie over a large bowl of popcorn and Jack 'n Coke in the afternoon. For dinner we cured our Chinese take-out cravings with our home cooked Asian meal. Menu: Sesame chicken, Mapo Tofu, grilled garlic shrimp, and Kimchi slaw. It was so worth all the dishes to wash afterwards.

Except Joe's quiet evening was just interrupted by a call for work. I extremely feel guilty for jinxing it, saying he doesn't get called that often while being on call 3 weeks out of a month. I'll have a cold alcoholic beverage waiting for him, because this was not how he wanted to end the weekend, already disappointing not being able to fish.
