Andrea, great use of text styles to pound the point home. Rain is indeed something to look forward to. It's really an amazing phenomenon. You've captured the idea that there is a scent afterward so you hit me on multiple sensory levels!! Smiles!

Is this strandized for the Brian? I swear I'll play when we have more creative typing keys to color with. I'm going to start calling this form mini hikies. It is a good one, I just can't, in my heart or soul, get excited about these hikies. Love, CayCay
