It is raining. "What is interesting about that?" you ask. I am in Texas. Rain is EXCITING in Texas! To see rain after months of sun is worth talking about. It makes a mess, though. The ground here is all clay and the water does not go into the ground. It just floods. Sometimes flash floods. We are talking about driving through lakes on the roads. This explains why the roads go over huge bridges spanning wide, dry river beds. Because they totally flood when it rains.
I have not had a chance yet, but I want to go see some flash floods. Actually, I want to take an inner tube and go ride a flash flood. Judging by all the twisted trees and rolled over rocks in the dry riverbeds, that would be a wild ride!
There is lightning and thunder too. For me, that is a summer phenomenon. But here it is, winter, with rain, thunder, and lightning. I feel like it is summer. This makes me feel some foreboding. If winter is so....nice and summer like, then what will the real summer bring?
