How lonely it is:
A winter world full of rain,
Rain raining on rain.

Never lonely for the garden which soaks up the rain with a smile.
Ah Yes Jean…
but how beautiful
It is, after a hot shower and heater blowing on feet… 🙂

I love a rainy day … Rain raining on rain.

How many miles did you walk today? 5?
4k steps ~ 2miles
WOW!!!!! You’re keeping your streek going.
I’m fading fast!
I don’t belive that. Just think…..the winter eather will make you stronger. Not to mention how good it is for your mental health.
So did you drive to the Cove and walk the two miles, there? I think you might need some Gortex apparel and boots that are leather and Gortex… you know I am well versed in Rain…(which makes it so green)
Yesterday, we had Fog All Day! Cold all day…the entire state was Sunny and Warm except for us – not even15 miles away it was Sunny and Warm!!! Was tempted to take a ride but then where would we find a bathroom with all the Covid-19 restrictions? Plus those few miles put us in Rural area…
I did drive to the Cove today. And then walked 2 miles there. And yes, I need boots and yes I need Gortex! Fog, great for photos!
If Hemingway wrote haiku! Seems perfect for 2020’s gray Trick or Treat day half-heartedly spitting snow.
Will you have snow for tomorrow the 31st (halloween)…I know that sometimes they’d have a snowy 31st in North Dakota! were some of our family lives… Several states had snow in September and again last week… Western Montana has already had -10…
Thankfully, no — tomorrow will be warmer, sunny and dry!
I am glad for you! Sunny and Dry!
Well, that’s good.
It is!
You write of rain. I write of mist.
And through and in and of it all, magic shimmers.
There we go again, simpatico!
It looks like dripping fireworks…
It does now that I look at it!
Love Mimi’s analogy! Wishing you a sunny weekend….
It snowed today!!!!!
You’re kidding! It did not snow here….🌴🌞😉
Shocking!
if you went out in today’s weather, I don’t see anything stoping you!
Well, freezing rain and black ice might do it!
that sounds like the kind of weather a hockey player would thrive in… 🙂
In his youth, yes!
Wondering, were you out in the dark walking in the rain while it turned to snow (while I was in bed simply musing)? if so, maybe the snow came to brighten up your trek….
No, when I was there, it was only rain and more rain. It snowed later in the morning.
You get a “bye” on days when it is icy…black ice & freezing rain No Thanks…Hoping that when you do walk in the dark you have reflective clothes…ps it is a special day for me and the hubster 🙂
Late to the party – trying to catch up but will be at it all day, methinks.
I thought it looked like fireworks, too. And I feel you. Went running in the rain two days ago. Shoes are STILL wet! Warm shower was what was needed right after, lemme tell you
What’s better than a hot shower after a cold wet run?!?!
I dunno but it sure felt good!
