This picture is not mine. It's theirs. Isn't it pretty? |
Last night it rained.
I never understood the beauty of rain until I moved to the desert. Maryland rain is damp and chilly and outdoor-plans-killing. Arizona rain is warm and musical and fragrant. And often, sunny. Rainbow city. (side note: if you haven't seen this yet, do yourself a favor and give it a click)
Anyway, last night. Arizona. Rain.
The Mister and I really felt like we only had one option. It involved bathing suits, cold adult beverages (natch*) and a nighttime swim under the raindrops.
But don't be fooled to think I didn't spend half that time in the hot tub instead.
*tbams, that one's for you!
Beautiful way of expressing what I feel - rain is different in the desert. I always thought it was because the air smelled so fragrant when it rains here. And also because it's so infrequent it's a treat, rather than the dreary endless days of gloom.
