Is it raining?

Last night we were up at 3am pushing the van 10 feet forward out of the range of a sprinkler!
Now a gentle sprinkle would have been appreciated, as the lil white van is in dire need of a wash, but this sprinkler was not a gentle sprinkler.
I was woken up by the sputter and tell tail sounds of sprinklers starting up, which was swiftly followed by a power hose type blast in through the window and onto my pillow. Wet, but laughing, we jumped out, released the handbrake and pushed until we were out of range.
