D.O.P.-T.

First rain of the season. Dramatic streaks and fans of clouds today, and by 6:00 grey cloud cover had come over, it was windy, and the beginning sunset was a couple of pink streaks. I did my hand-watering anyway. When we came out with the dog at about a quarter past seven, the rain had started; it had swept most of the people out of the park, but the usual weekend basketball tournament and gathering was continuing with some rain protection and without the usual amplified music. The dog took the sprinkling in stride, though she was a bit miffed that I wouldn't let her forge into the damp twilight and snack her way across the grass. After we got home, someone had braved the wetness and eaten up the catfood, so I put out more; Pru emerged from under the car. Welcome to rainy season, kittens. Hope we get a lot of rain.
