April Showers Bring . . .

Yesterday we had another tropical-style downpour with yet another 1.6" of rain in a few hours.  Let me apologize in advance to any readers who are still experiencing winter or drought.  I'm really not gloating--I'm just reveling in our soggy, gloomy winter finally being over--and I'll be wilting under our own hot, dry summer soon enough!  Apologies gotten out of the way, let me get back to the subject at hand:

April showers bring . . .

. . . lightning-dodging, mad dashes for the house . . .

. . . myriad shades of green on the trees . . .

. . . soggy sheep . . .

. . . lucky ducks basking in the cool dusk air . . .

. . . wistfully wet dogs . . .

. . . and incomparable sunset skies.  All in the space of two hours!
