PRESCOTT – The rain came and it was wonderful! I hope not many of you had your plans changed but getting the consistent steady moderate rainfall was just what we needed. Of course, we had to mow lawns again but that was a small price to pay. Getting 1 to 1.5 inches like that was what my farmer father would call a real blessing. Hopefully we will get more this fall.
