It rained hard here in Philly yesterday. Some people find this kind of rain depressing, but strangely enough I felt perhaps like how the earth might feel—refreshed. At around 5:30 last night while looking out the window and seeing the vibrant colors that life outside was painting on the raindrops I said, “let’s go walk.” We walked outside in the pouring rain for a good 15 minutes and got totally soaked. It was one of the most invigorating times I have had here so far.

Nice, son … but what’s all that blue goo? Don’t tell me! … it’s a Philly thing, right? Check it out with RW … maybe you’re not supposed to get it on your skin. Only trying to help, son.

Yeah Rachel’s photo got me thinking about water and beauty even though Doug was being facetious a bit. I like looking at her blog.
