Reminders of fall

Posted on Jul 18th, 2007 by Eric : Guided Guide Eric
Oh man.  It's raining today after many days of brutal heat.  I know that many of my Oregonian brothers and sisters are groaning in disappointment because we don't get much sun in general... so in the summer we expect SUN for the duration.  But god how I love the fall and this reminds me so much of it.  Waking to that muffled darkness, the sound of rain and cars driving through it - like hot oil on a griddle sizzling at a distance.  The smell of rotting things muddled with must and rain jackets and wet dogs.  The cool air on my skin.

Oh beautiful things to come.  Thank you rain.
