We've had quite the heat wave here. It's been unseasonally hot and we've gone without any precipitation for a few weeks. We had rain today. Not a lot but a beautiful, all day shower. It was too bad I was busy all day because I would have loved to have gone for a run - best runs ever are in the rain. Everything looks a little greener now, the air is fresher, the temperature more bearable. I'm so thankful for today's rain. A.
