Here Comes the Rain

The Pacific Northwest is home to some of the most breathtaking scenery in the United States, but that greenery comes at a cost. It rains in the Pacific Northwest, and it rains a lot. 2 weeks rain free and above normal temperatures was a blessing. The rain is settling back in and I feel a sense of rightness. Luckily I’m not sweet enough to melt in the rain, so it doesn’t stop me. I love the smell of the rain as I walk through the forest. I love that I usually have the trails and beaches to myself when it’s raining. And if it’s raining particularly hard, I can catch up on my knitting projects. I seem to be buying yarn faster than I can knit it.
