Life Giving Rain...

Dear Diary,

With so much of the west in severe drought, I feel a bit guilty with this lovely rain we are getting here. Things are so lush and green. I was able to go out an record some plump raindrops in between the down pours. They look like tiny jewels on the day lily leaf.

Sunshine is delicious, rain is refreshing, wind braces us up, snow is exhilarating; there is really no such thing as bad weather, only different kinds of good weather. - John Ruskin
