In the Rain

Jared and I walked around the lake again today.  It's been drizzly this week, so we've gotten wet and cold, but the poor weather keeps most people at home and the trails are quiet.  There's something about the smell of the forest in the rain that gives me permission and worthiness and a spine and a smile.

  1. A brief but beautiful post. Thank you, Miss Maggie! It caused me to repent of my steadily diminishing appreciation for rain! But I must say that those four important possessions were already yours, before you ever entered the forest. Especially the smile - it's one of the most beautiful I have ever seen!

  2. There is something profound and primal about the smell of the autumn forest in rain...
