Staycation | Day 6

Nature births raindrops so the soul can grow.
Unknown

Today's rain gave the garden a Japanese look, perhaps on account of the mistiness. The air freshened. The plants thrive. It looks to me like they are sticking out their tongues to catch the raindrops. :-)

I'm remembering wet cobblestone streets in Italy and the oscillating thrum on a cabin's tin roof, and I grasp that rain on vacation is to be counted among its pleasures.

  1. Truly magical!
    If anyone can ever capture (and put in a spray can)that wonderful smell that occurs just after the rain starts after a long dry spell, then they have an income assured for life...
