“But, my dear, if you should be caught out in the storm!”
“Why, I don’t know but I should like it! What harm could it do? I’m not soluble in water – rain won’t melt me away! I think upon the whole I rather prefer being caught in the storm. . .”
― E.D.E.N. Southworth, Capitola’s Peril

Driving home Sunday evening, after a torrential rain storm had wreaked havoc for almost two solid hours, there descended on the sodden and wind shattered earth the most delightful sense of serenity and calm. All was now contently wrapped in the quiet cozy hushed whispers which seem to follow such temper tantrums of angry storm systems.
The rays of a setting sun, doing their best to penetrate the parting clouds, were diffused by a myriad of water droplets acting like a million tiny prisms bending and refracting the sun’s light into a vivid display of spectacular color.
Grainy images sadly cannot capture the vast beauty of an evening sky that seems to stretch out as far and as endless as the heavens allow, yet it is all I have to offer—this small token of the world seemingly at peace. . .

Magnificent photos of God’s amazing sky! The sky always draws me into moments of communion with God. I often tell God how much I enjoy God’s beautiful sky. Thanks for posting these photos.
Grainy or not, lovely photos and text! We’ve had a little rain but nothing like that. I’m so glad you finally got some rain. However, we have been in the 60’s all day today and though it will go back up some before it’s all said, it has been such a treat to feel that invigorating, cool air. Love and hugs, N 🙂 ❤
