Hi Jules
the rain always guarantees a fresh and bright picture doesn't it...

The geranium and the pansy - mainstays of my childhood...

thanks Jules

Lovely photos. We need rain really bad. We have had less than 1/2" for the entire month of May.

Beautiful! I love the dewy freshness of a post-thunderstorm morning. We just had our first bad storm last night. It was thrilling!
