I know, I know, it’s been raining like crazy in Atlanta, why get excited?

As I said its been raining like crazy in Atlanta for the past few weeks and it might continue raining while I’m there next week for work. In Colorado, with 300 days of sunshine on average, we don’t see a lot of rain. Oh, it might rain, but for 3 or 4 minutes here and there, so rain is not something I expect to see.

There have been a few days where the forecast was thunderstorms, but nothing. Tonight, the sky got darker and darker, and not just because the sun was going down! It was dark and grey to the left and bright to the right (please don’t ask me if its east or west!), then you could smell it, a good rain was coming.

It had been thunder and lightning for a few hours and then…it started, sounded good, smelled great, felt wonderful, there was finally a cool breeze in that wind. For a long time, it was just hit wind, not refreshing, but when it cooled off, it was wonderful.

I told DCM, if we could put a screen on the balcony, I would get a futon or a porch swing and sleep right there, the sound of the rain, the cool breeze, what could be better?
