Its going to be...

..a very wet day, today...

I've just popped by head outside my front door, and I can SMELL the refreshing wet rain on the various surfaces...the air seems full of Ozone!

Its the time when I feel very sorry for all those folks suffering the devastating Wildfires in the South Western USA, Southern Europe, and elsewhere, who haven't seen a drop of rain for ages!

There are times when rain is very welcome...!

I have just been out onto my deck and the thermometer in the shade under my vine (anyone need more grapes.......home made red wine.... 8-)) tells me it is 32.4

With all this rain, everything is lush green!

All my trees, shrubs, grass, flowers, etc, are soaking it up, and enjoying every minute!

Its late afternoon now, and the Sun is trying to shine through the grey cloud cover.. and the outside temp is 17*C with a very strong south-westerly breeze/wind!

My only problem with; "rain", is that it stops me going shopping (for FOOD), etc, on my Motor Bike...
...I get wet, sad, and uncomfortable!.... :'(....!

....(...and that's just sat on the toilet!)... ::).... ;D...!

Tomorrow, I've got to Bike into town to get my bi-annual eyes check, so I'm hoping it wont rain, then!

"Rain, rain. Go away. Come again, another day!".

Paul.... :D....!
