mmmm having a cup of this while hanging out on the balcony watching the rain roll in. dark gloomy clouds, bringing the fresh scent of rain to clean away the day’s dirt and mess. i adore rain..sadly ontario just doesn’t do rainstorms like alberta…the kind where you just want to run in to the middle of the street and dance in the rain…cool droplets of rain, splattering on the hot, dry sidewalks, sizzling as they hit the pavement until the rain begins to overtake the concrete jungle…pooling water, as it travels across the slate grey…searching for a way into the soil…

I want it to rain in St. Louis too. We keep getting predictions for rain, & even some thunder, but sadly, no water falling from the sky. My garden is thirsty, as is my soul.
Mine too Terri – we’ve been in a drought here in Texas for years now. I have a few flowers and I water my trees and that’s it. I hope you’re feeling better.
I’m so jealous you get to watch the storms. I tried to go outside but TK and I were absolutely drenched in no time and she just wanted to stomp in puddles. On the road. With the cars. So I brought her back while she kicked and streamed and wistfully looked at the lightning from the basement window. :P
That description makes me wish it was raining. :)
Agreed. Excellent description.

I’m getting there. I told my folks next year I’ll bring them here for their anniversary.

Aww, Cavo, that sounds adorable.
Cavo – need to find a back alley or something close heh no cars, lots of puddles.
Yeah, I do! It might be a bit of walk though – no alleys around! :P
