Welcome rain.............

The rain started here about 9.30 am this morning, and more or less hasn't stopped, a good steady amount has fallen, the earth is ready for it, and so was I.
I took a few minutes to stand out in it, breathing in the freshness of the morning, listening to the sounds that only rain at the end of spring can make on the abundant greenery that has appeared over the past couple of weeks, a sound heard at no other time of the year.
This is the view up the garden from the back door, the top half being left open all day now; I spent a good half hour leaning on the door, just looking.
I'm feeling energised and positive from the full moon, and the new, freshening rain has gone to reinforce how I feel, and I'm ready to tackle everything and anything now :) Bring it on.................
