We are having rain and dark clouds.

It is the talk of the town.

Of course, the rain is needed. We are in the desert. And all of California is in drought.

But the delight of a change from the normal is fun. The few people I saw today at the store were almost giddy at the prospect. Me too.

And here it is. Dark clouds, wet pavements. Very slippery since there hasn't been a wash off in quite a while.

I thought perhaps we might need the furnace on too. But it seems that won't be the case. It is still pretty warm.

For me it means that I will not have to water my garden or fill up the fountain today. Yes. I do that. Sorry. But Jerry Brown's mandate has lifted so it is OK now.

It is a blessing to have such wonderful weather year round but perversely we all kind of want it to get nasty the way it used to do back East. Boston weather came up in conversation more than a few times today.

Tomorrow we go back to the boring nice weather, full sun, warm temperatures. Over and over again. No change until the next showery day. Some relief from the tedium of beautiful clear and sunny skies.
