Now there's something I
really miss. Back home in Ohio, though, there would be a nice, gentle patter of rain, constant, the sky a very bright gray, might be a little damp, but the rain isn't hard enough to yank leaves off of trees, and there's no one trying to stay close to shelter in case of tornado (southwest Ohio actually gets tornadoes). Then it stops, and there's this...smell. Soil and leaves and green, hear the water dripping through the earth to reach the little seeds that will soon sprout, yearling deer stumbling through the forest beside their mothers, songbirds coming back out to sing the clouds away and bring the sunshine back out...
Yeah, we don't get that here in Colorado. Oh, there's rain in the spring, but it's not the same. And if it's warm enough, it evaporates before it hits the ground. Okay, that's actually kinda neat. But it's not right.
Still warmish, sunny, lovely, calm. February, March and April seem to be our snow months at the end of winter, and I expect this year to be a rough one.
