Rain and Bleach

It rained here today... after 4 or 5 straight 40% chance of rain days, it finally did. Rain came down for about 15 minutes, probably about 1/8-1/4 inch. You can hear the rain gurgling down into the cistern. No lightning storms since before when Kendra arrived. On the upside, no power outages in a while either.

Talked to Devon (downstairs tenant - landlords son) on the phone. He should be returning in a week or so. Devon said that he drinks the water from the cistern, unfiltered. He also said that the water is bleached and filtered. Hmm.

One thing that I forgot to write about earlier... it is noisy here at night! Lots of chirpy insects, as well as frogs. From about 5am-sun down roosters make a bunch of noise. We tune out the noise fairly well, but I worry about the sleep quality of our guests. I suppose earplugs are always an option.
