The Life of Water, Respect 4 sheep, and a Lady in distress

Before I came to live here I had a fair degree of experience with the Water of Life, especially that which springs forth in bottles from Islay and Speyside ...but I was less experienced in the Life of Water. I knew it would be wet, but I never guessed it could be this wholeheartedly soaking on such a relentless basis....everyday new springs, burns, waterfalls appear all around us, and the water table now seems to be cheerfully residing about an inch and a half above general ground level. This isn't really a grumble as such, what would be the point in that!....more of an observation. I'm actually amazed on a daily basis that the sky can hold this much water, and can't even begin to understand how it all gets up there in the first place. Maybe someone can educate me on that one. I just cannot accept that evaporation and condensation can provide the answer....surely the clouds are cheating and have started employing enormous new hi-tech suction pumps somewhere over the Atlantic when they are sure no one is looking, drawing up millions of gallons of previously innocent seawater ready to unceremoniously offload it when they reach us here on the wild west coast.
