It has not rained in a long time. It has been kinda hot around here lately. In fact we are in a 4 year drought. Times are tough and there is strict water rationing. On top of that, our summer has been H O T.
Today it rained. Not drought breaking rain, but enough to get wet in, to feel that damp cool, to lick your face and relish the water in the air.
The dust washed from trees and buildings.
The earth sucked it up greedily.
I danced with joy. Rain is so life-giving.

SO Very Very Good.
Excuse me while I bore you with pictures.
