finally, a drain trench along north side of house

A rain day today. It was nice to slow things down. I went out in the a.m. downpour to quickly make a trench along the property line where the neighbors gutter DUMPS! all it's water into my yard near the foundation. It was fine time in the rain- like a child I enjoyed it...then rested the whole of the day. Wait, I did exert myself to snap a picture of a wild canary(american goldfinch)- they are visiting my sunflowers.
