This is the view from my balcony yesterday in the late afternoon.
The clouds were moving in fast and quite suddenly there was a
cloudburst northwest of the city.
I am linking this to
Lost in Translation’s Thursday Special
the prompt is
Cloudscape
Figures there would be a downpour when I don’t have my umbrella and my car is on the other side of the parking lot. Oh, there is Mr. Dreamy and he doesn’t have an umbrella either, and obviously not happy about it. Looks like he is coming over here to wait in the doorway for the rain to stop. We will be stuck here together for a while, I think. What a pity.

We have had a lot of rain.
More than usual for this time of year.
The bad about summer rain here is that the humidity is awful, like nearly 100%.
When the temperatures are in the 90* it is just steamy.
The good about the summer rain is that everything is green and lush.
This is the view from my balcony.
Usually there is a bit of brown on the trees because of the heat and dryness.
But because of the rain it is still Spring green out there.
Today, I think that seeing the green makes me believe summer rain is more good than bad.

Today is Thursday, September 30, 2010
There have been two days of rain and cooler temperatures. After a month of 90-100 degrees and no rain it is wonderful to see and smell and feel the rain.
Sameness, especially uncomfortably hot and dry sameness, gets on my nerves. (Some day I will complain about the sameness of the cold and wet, but not today.) I am pretty sure God knows people need changes in their environments. After all, He did create lots of different landscapes and waters and skies for us to live in.
So for now I am enjoying the rain and cool air; and because God is good tomorrow will be a new day of…something.
Thank you, Lord, for the rain and coolness. And if I forget, thank you for whatever You have in mind for tomorrow.
