Rainy days

[Snowflake]

I love the rain. Sleeping in the rain is wonderful, falling asleep to the rain is the best way to drift off.

In the majors storms of 1981-82 in Northern California, I discovered the most wonderful used book store in San Jose (alas long gone now). Long rows upon rows of old fiction, poetry and just wonderful musty books (also some cool antiques). It was during those stormy days I would spend hours browsing the stacks and more often than not, coming home with a stack of books to read. To this day, when it starts to storm, I have the overwhelming desire to go to a used book store (or antiquing).

Thunderstorms here all summer long, those are not fun simply because it is too damned hot & humid. One thing I can say for them, they are powerful, sometimes you can really feel the thunder rolling through, right under the house. My kitties really don't like that at all. Watching the light show, priceless!
