We've been getting rain every day for a week, and since I started preparing the garden, and the broccoli starts are ready to go in, I'm ready for it to stop coming down for a couple of days so I can dig out there, or at least rake up some rows so I can put the babies in so their roots can start exploring the rich earth out there. But no, it's still coming down.
It being a Saturday, there were plenty of other rain dogs out in it today. Right after lunch I went for a walk, a couple miles in the neighborhood, and met up with a dozen or more bicyclists, and as many or more walkers, some with dogs, some with kids. At the park, both playgrounds were well occupied with families, even while the sky kept pouring it on! Not heavily, mind you, but not just a drizzle either. A good steady rain, definitely rain, where it was good to have something on one's head to keep from getting too soggy. It didn't stop us from getting out and enjoying the day.
The best part was just at the end of the afternoon, out in the west over the bay the clouds broke up, and the peachy golden sunlight streaked through the drops still falling, and lit up an intense double rainbow on the other side. Awesome.
