April 22, 2013
It appears that those April showers have finally shown
up. Along with those showers, the
possibility of flash flooding. As
always, it’s either feast or famine. The
rain, even though it came as a gully
washer, was a welcome break. Now that the rain has arrived, everywhere you
look, you see signs that spring has sprung.
The cooler temperatures have people out walking, children are practicing
baseball and soccer on every available patch of grass in Miller. When the rain lets up for a minute, that
is. It is a beautiful sight to see. Put me
in, coach, I’m ready to play.
For those of you who are hungering for some good gossip,
pull up a chair. There is news to be had
on the progress of FB’s alleged pursuit of SB.
Rumor has it that they were seen together at the welcome home party
heading outside for a little alone
time, and then FB disappeared suddenly...before we sang for she’s a jolly
good fella. Interesting. She stayed,
smiled, and charmed the multitudes. Can
this blogger just say that the new favorite color in Miller is red? The guys out there will be adding a chorus of
amens to that thought, no doubt. Also,
it has come to the attention of yours truly that Dot at the water office
has a pool going. She is taking bets on how long it will take
before wedding bells are ringing in Miller.
Anyone who wants to chip in, see Dot before your favorite date is
taken. The person who gets the date of the proposal, no
we’d better make that wedding, given what happened the last time, will get the
pot. This intrepid blogger has already
taken the 12th of Never. All
of Miller is crossing their fingers, but FB has some serious making up to do if
he wants to keep the SB as his own. The
water office opens at nine, just saying.
Meanwhile, the rain is falling creating slick streets. Drive with care, and for goodness sake, don’t
be daft. When the stream has flooded out
of its banks and is running across the road, turn around and find another way
to get where you are going. Do not drive
through running water. It just isn’t
safe folks. But hey, don’t take this
blogger’s word for it, ask old HM down at the feed store. It cost him a pretty penny to get his
brand-new Jeep pulled out of Salty Creek.
And, parents, don’t forget to wish your children good luck. This is the week that 3rd and 4th graders take their Reading and Math STAAR tests. Say a little prayer for our kids this week, would you? They could use it. Happy bubbling to all.
