Rain

I am sitting at my school desk (I always am when I'm at the computer) and it's raining. Not a pounding rain, but a lovely mist. It reminds me of Ireland...a nice soft day.

I can smell the rain, and the breeze blowing through is nice and cool, not hot, for once.
The light is also muted: the palm trees across Hilo Bay are paler and more dreamlike.
I can't hear the rain, though: it's such a soft rain that the only way I can tell it's raining is to look over my shoulder at the door that's open and see the rain there.

Ahhh. What a great afternoon. It's not pouring rain, making me want to go to sleep, but it's also not great playing weather. I can sit here and get work done and feel the breeze cool me down.

I am thirsty, though. I might have to go to McDonald's for a water. The price is right, after all.
