Another Rainy December Day

Yay, more rain!! I haven’t had to run the sprinklers since the last rain, and now we’re getting more!

I guess lots of people don’t understand the sheer joy some of us feel in SoCal when it rains. My kids love this weather since they see it so rarely. They dream of moving to Seattle or someplace rainy and I just smile and wonder how long it would be before they missed all our usual sunshine. I walk around like a nut with my raincoat hood down, smiling and enjoying the rain.

But SoCal rains do have a tremendous beauty and their rarity makes them very appreciated. My garden will be so much happier with fresh water and it helps wash out some of the salts that build up from the months of sprinkler irrigation.

My only complaint is the muddy golden paws…..
