A Wet Gray Day

Got a good rain today. It was getting pretty dry for the plants so they have perked up with this nice drink. I am not imagining the cold... much of Alaska has had record cold July temperatures. The jet steam is doing wild things I guess.

A sailing ship showed up in the bay under power yesterday. We could see the tall masts from our cabin, it is that big. There is still snow in the mountains across the bay. Would rather see it gone by now. The question is, will it be there when the snow flies this fall?
