between storms

Sunday I was caught outside (walking) in a downpour. Today I managed to watch the heavy rain from inside. The morning was spent in the garden, working and chatting with other volunteers. I managed an early afternoon exercise walk before the first rain came. There was a downpour, but as I looked through the rain I saw blue sky. I wonder how close the line was between heavy rain and no rain.

Early in the evening I headed back to the garden to wander among the flowers. It was a bit darker than I expected; the sun was hiding behind clouds. I absorbed the colors around me, enjoying the flowers and the birds. Ten minutes after I returned home heavy rain started to fall again.
