    Caleb E. Yoder I do not believe this is a selfish prayer as many families' livelihood will be greatly affected if the wheat they planted receives no rain...

Tonight we have a 20% chance for rain. It's a little hard to pin too many hopes on these chances since we've been getting almost no rain of late, even with a much higher percentage chance of rain.

Sun and wind were in abundance today.

The wheat is headed out, and it waves like May wheat should, but the stalks are stubby and the heads are short. Some alfalfa is being cut, even though it's short too, and makes a fairly feeble-looking windrow.

On a whinier note, it's a P.S. day, and you might also pray for a change in wind direction. I'd prefer my baked chicken and potatoes for supper without the pervading aroma, even inside the house. If I knew the south wind was bringing rain, however, I could live with it. And I'll no doubt survive, even if it doesn't.
