Trying Not to Write about Rain
I didn't want to think about rain, I didn't want to talk about rain and I didn't want to write about rain. Rain has dominated our days and our conversation for weeks on end. But here it is raining again today. I know I should be thinking about the beautiful sunny day we had yesterday instead of wishing it was sunny again today. But here I am, thinking, talking and writing about more rain!

It did get sunny in the late afternoon. We're supposed to get more rain tomorrow. You have a rainy season. It seems like we are in a rainy season right now.










I love the rain. I know you are looking forward to some sunny days, but I am looking forward to our thunderstorms! Every year about this time we have afternoon thunderstorms that last through the end of september. We are the lightening capitol of the world (or at least the US) and as long as I'm inside I like watching the show. It does cause damage sometimes, which isn't a good thing, but when it doesn't I like watching it. Also, our thunderstorms cool things down.
