Lovely Rain

What a lovely day, I thought to myself...
As threatening clouds covered the mountains.
The wind spun dust devils around the yard.
Claps of thunder frightened the horses.

After 6 long weeks of torture, hopeful raindrops began to fall.




Oh, it wasn't a lot of rain.




In fact, the ground is so dry it barely made a dent.

But, it was enough.

To boost the spirits.

Bathe the ponies.

And, bring the meadows back to life.
