It's been raining on and off all day in Austin, with more rain predicted for most of the next five days. Those of you in Washington would think that's not a big deal. But here, where they are in drought conditions, with the big lakes at 39% full with no waterskiing and no lawn-watering, this is a big deal. May I just add that the stake presidents here asked all the Saints to fast on Sunday for rain. The people here must be really faithful, because they are being blessed. What a great experience to witness a miracle that we can share with our kids.
