PRESCOTT – Oh, what a beautiful sound, raindrops on the roof! Something we have not heard much of this spring. We were fortunate to get an inch of rain with no strong winds or tornados last weekend. And more is predicted; we can only hope it happens as this spring has been very dry. The threat of fire in this dry time is very real as evidenced by the fires north of Lake Superior. Hoping and praying we don't find out what that is like.
