Weird, Wet Stuff

What is that weird wet stuff falling from the sky??? Oh! It's RAIN!! I'd almost forgotten what it looks like. It's hard to photograph rain but you can see it pouring from our down spout, and a little glistening on the patio table.
This is the first rain we've had since April. Such excitement! You can see the little white rain drops against the greenery and along the patio beam. The birds were delighted! You should hear them chorusing in the bushes even as I type.


This photo below, was taken yesterday in Magee Park, Carlsbad. It was my friend's son's 40th birthday. I stopped by for a little while and it was just a beautiful day.



The birds may be loving it, but this was Bailey's response.
