Here comes the rain again…
I don’t even know how the rest of that Annie Lennox song goes. Something about diving into an ocean I think.
But the rain has returned to the Pacific Northwest! I’ve only got a few quick minutes to post before work, but I wanted to say how much I enjoy the rain. It’s one of the great parts about living in this part of the country. North Dakota gets the snow, Illinois the wind, Arizona the sun, and Washington the rain.
If you were watching the Olympics yesterday, it was quite a different sight to see all those skiers in nearly whiteout conditions! Too bad the snow didn’t come two weeks ago. After the last six days of beautiful sunshine, it’s nice to see the rain again.
Don’t get me wrong. I love the sun, but I love the sun in June. I love the snow in December, I love the winds in October and I love the rain in March. Enjoy it while it lasts…it’s part of the reason we love to live here!
When you were a kid living in the western Washington community of Bothell, you played little leage baseball every spring. We had a rule back then about calling games due to rain… you didn’t call a game unless you lost a kid in a puddle!
