rain, rain, rain, rain...

The power went out for about an hour. Came back on about an hour ago. The good news was that even though it had rained all day, I wasn't worried because I had a battery back-up sump pump. The not good but not bad news is that it's been so dry that the pump hole is bone dry, so even though it's been raining all day, there was nothing to pump. It's 844pm, and there's still nothing to pump. Not to say that there isn't any water in the basement--there's seepage in the usual place. But the pumps themselves haven't kicked on all day. Here's hoping they do when needed.
Still a few more hours rain ahead. We're getting September's average rainfall all in one go.
