You have RAIN!? We're still singing the "how dry I am" blues in this neck of the land. So darn dry we cain't hardly make spit and lakes are down 14+ feet!! Oh, Ed, have those northeast winds blow some of that stuff down our way.

Enjoyed the images you bring, 'tho :o)

I appreciate your sentiments, Ed. I do wish we had some of your rain here. I don't know what's happened. This used to be know as the "wet coast," because it is the west coast; and indeed it used to rain almost without sunshine from September to May. Now, the rain is rare. It's not hard to believe in climate change. Thank you for this. Love and peace to you,

Regis

No use making a fuss. Nature will take its course. Our autumn is a mixture of storms and humid hot sunny days. It is the time I get sick most. Victor

I always welcome rain, because we get so little of it. Sunshine is wonderful , but it can get tiresome. I like this poem, well done;-)ET

Sounds like great advice, Ed. Time to batten down the hatches, curl up with a few good books and hot chocolate.
Good poem -- you've summed it up quite well.
Hugs & respect,
