It just started raining. Shows every sign of being a deluge. Water is puddling up in the yard, because the dry soil is full of clay and baked hard. Grass is dead, so it's going to wash away some of the topsoil, too, looks like ~ we are on a hill. But that's ok, it's finally raining.
I woke up about 11 a.m., it was dark outside, and I looked out wondering if it were raining, no, it was dry as a bone. But by the time my coffee was done, the sky opened up.
Not a thunderstorm, either, it's stationary. It would be very nice if it stays here, for hours even.
Funny how I took rain for granted.
Aw, it's slowing down. But still steady. I can imagine the trees saying "ahhhhhhhh." |
