Why oh why does it seem the world comes to a halt when it rains? Okay, sometimes it’s justified if the weather is very bad.
Me, I love the rain, obliviously! One of my hobbies is taking pictures, simply for fun, and I enjoy taking water pictures or ones in the rain. I like getting pictures of water drops. Needless to say, I do love the water.
Too much rain, flood warnings, turning your yard into a mini lake, well that’s not too much fun. I’ve traveled in some terrifically bad storms as well. One time I was on my way to Asheville and I couldn’t see a thing the rain was so bad. I pulled over at a Mickey D’s - anyone that know me, knows that I never eat there but on that particular night it was the only place I could find to stop and I got a hot chocolate with whipped cream before I continued on.
I think rain is cleansing. I looked outside this morning and thought everything looks cleaner in the rain. And here it’s not that clean because it’s fall and leaves are falling so they are absolutely everywhere.
I just enjoyed a drive down a country road in the rain. It was sort of a mist. Leaves are just beginning to turn colors with the fall. Horses and cows were grazing in the grass as the rain wasn’t too bad to have the cows lying down yet. No one was outside. A few other cars passing here and there, drive thru’s were full because no one wants to get out of their cars in the rain unless they must.
Rain is a necessity most of the time. Rain to me is soothing.
What a nice way to end a lazy Sunday, with reading, a country road drive, answering some messages, taking a few rain pictures and oh yes typing this post. Rain is cleansing, after all.
