Beautiful, lovely, bewitching, charming, winsome rain! It’s presence has already cancelled two of my plans for the day, but who cares?  I can just feel the dry, thirsty earth soaking it up, the trees and flowers opening their leaves and taking a deep drink.  Because we’re rated as being in an extreme drought, we haven’t even been allowed to water with restrictions these last few weeks, so the grass crunches underfoot and the plants droop.  But at last–it’s raining.
Now let’s just hope it goes on raining for a long time.
