Ok, so maybe it's just me, being a born-and-bred Oregonian and all, but I simply adore the weather we're having...... heavy gray skies........ rain-laden clouds dragging their bellies across the mountains........ asphalt glistening after a gentle rain............ the scent of freshly washed world..... the joy of putting on my powder blue raincoat........... the wonder of taking my dog Zeus on walks through fog so thick it seems a gate to another world............ ahhhh......... almost makes me feel human again...........
