The most beautiful smell in the world

[ramblin_phyl]

parched earth now damp and soaking up every drop of blessed rain, and refreshed greenery. The lilac bush is positively perky. The cedar trees are waving their fronds in glee like a fan dancer earning a huge tip. Acres of dust washing down the middle of the street

I was just thinking that you know you're living in a drought zone when you wake up, look out at the overcast, cool, rain-promising morning and think "it's gonna be a nice day."

(so long as the actual rain holds off until I've biked to where I need to go)

Chaz,

Had another come up with the same word. The written word still likes like Ogre blood, but it smells so much better.
