there will be rain

I have not much to say except that it is going to be a cold and dreary day!  Thank you mother.  There is something about a street at 1:30 in the morning.  The roar of thousands of people asleep, the yellow humming street light, a glowing grey sky, looking up and seeing tiny wisps of water racing at you trying to dodge your face to make it to the ground.  And the smell filling my nostrils of a first rain freshly fallen on asphalt that has been baking and scorching for 7 months.  The wonderful defeat of summer!  I love it.  Fall is our summer.
