And there are plenty of ponds to be filled to sustain watering as we enter a dry period. Helps the new courses get established.

According to some local weather stations, we've gotten over 3" of rain so far today! Very needed rain. I'm happy.

We had 4.5 inches here in Rio Ranchero. It was a nice, gentle "extended" rain and perfect for ground absorption.
