so much for frisbee...

It's getting on into rainy season here, which means that instead of a decent amount of rain, there are just torrential downpours and more rain than you could want! =)

I've actually been surprised this past week by the lack of rain: every day now for a while the sky turns black and thunder starts booming and I think to myself... here we go, it's going to pour! But then, maybe it drizzles for a second and then clears up.

But not yesterday. Yesterday afternoon, instead of going to aerobics like I often do, I decided to go play frisbee golf with Matt and a few other guys. We let the older kids stay home and watch a movie (they knew where to find us if they needed us... Ukarumpa isn't all that big!) and we took Julianne along. Well, after going from threatening black sky to sun earlier in the day, clouds and rain snuck up on us at the 4th hole (well, that would more accurately be the 4th tree or light pole). And boy did it come! Raindrops the size of quarters. Thankfully we were able to hang out in a friend's house until it slowed down a little and we could make it back home without being drenched in just two minutes. And it poured the rest of the evening, and a good chunk of the night as well.

Welcome to the rainy season (now, to just be careful when I next do laundry as the washing water is going to be liquid mud)!!
