Hope rains eternal.
Didn't it rain. If we try hard not to feel guilty, while other parts of the country were bone-dry, some of them having terrible wildfires as a result. South Texas escaped those, but had been arid from winter onward. On the happy side, though, a week or so before the Wing Family of America met for its national, mid-June reunion, in San Antonio, good rains preceded us. And green prevailed lushly, along the winding Pase del Rio and elsewhere, to impress the visitors.
