Naruna and Central Texas have been in a serious drought situation for over 18 months. The last time we saw any significant amount of precipitation was spring of 2007, when Marble Falls received 19 inches of rain one night. At the same time they were being washed away, Naruna got 3 1/2 inches. That was our last rainfall which amounted to much, and we have been under a Burn Ban for most of the past three years because of the critically dry conditions.A fortuitous collision of several weather fronts over Texas this week brought some 
extremely appreciated moisture to Naruna. In the past 48 hours, a little over 5 inches of rain has fallen. Trees are budding, sprigs of grass are pushing up through the mud, and everything is wonderously damp and drippy. At the beginning of this week, we were setting records for high temperatures in the upper 80's and lower 90's, and now it is cool and comfortable, and a fire in the fireplace has been welcome the last couple of nights.
