Greetings and salutations, everyone; yes, once again it is I, Mani the purebred border collie, filling in for the guy I live with, and here today to talk about the sudden change. You may remember me from such posts as “The Old Man And The Sea Kale”, among so many, many others.

Here I am in a characteristic pose.
This is me, “illegally” drinking water from the bird bath. It’s really only illegal if the water hasn’t been changed, and it was just changed, after the bird bath was cleaned, so it’s really okay even though the guy I live with reminds me there’s also fresh, filtered water in my bowl in the kitchen.

Speaking of water, this happened yesterday.

You can see that things that changed here, fairly suddenly.
That’s really all I have for this post. It’s a very big deal, of course, and more rain is in the forecast.
“Almost like the good old days”, according to the guy I live with.
There’s water in the creek, as you can see.

Until next time, then.
