A Summer Shower
Today, for the first summer day in more than ten years of summer days , I sat through a wonderful summer rain shower. It felt wonderful.
I never thought of what I wasn’t living through. I never thought “wow, today, this day, this summer day, it isn’t raining.? That;’s just not how it works. But with the summer rain storm today, I had a flash back of memory’s of my youth and what it felt like. The warm day that was still a bit cool. The shine on the street with the sun so high in the sky. I never remember seeing such reflections in winter in the rain.
At home, in Southern California, it did not rain offten. But there were enough days where I remember sitting outside with my brothers and friends being good, but not too good or is that being a bit bad, but not too bad. We would kill summer days surrounded by bushes wet with rain. I recall the air being humid, but not very humid. Not East Coast or Florida humid. Humid with a slight chill. Sounds confusing and contradictory but to me, it is so clear in my mind. Today, I felt that summer shower feeling one more time.

So now I have a new objective, a new hobby, a new summer event. Look for the perfect day. For me, the perfect summer day is a day that is what I call a Summer Shower.
