Before the Rain

All was silent as before --


All silent save the dripping rain.
--Henry Wadsworth Longfellow


It was a beautiful, sunny day yesterday and today, it rains.  I hope the sun shines where you are today.

A big thank you to Sugar the Golden Retriever and Dachshund Nola for hosting another Black and White Sunday.

  3. At least you got one day of sunshine. It's actually a little rainy here today - quite odd for California.

  4. I hope the sun comes back to you soon, Oz. We had that bad rain yesterday and today we have such a silly rain-sun-dark-bright-whatever-mix. Tomorrow starts a new week with brandnew weather too, let's hope it will be good :o)
