“It rained every day, starting about nine in the morning and pouring in translucent gray sheets until about midnight.

There were areas of shallow mud and areas of deep mud, but there were no areas without mud. Most of our world was under water, and you had to know where to step.” – John Ketwig, …and a hard rain fell
