that lick of rain? It was a light lick. 0.01" of rain. A single hundredth of an inch. Gee. Thanks.

This morning could be described not as the black cauldron of morning but as a grey-ish blue cauldron of morning.
I just like the word 'cauldron'

From Laurie Lee's April Rise
This was how this morning felt to me, even though we're on the other side of summer, on the downhill skid towards Christmas. If ever I saw blessing in the air I see it now in this still early day Where lemon-green the vaporous morning drips Wet sunlight on the powder of my eye. Blown bubble-film of blue, the sky wraps round Weeds of warm light whose every root and rod Splutters with soapy green

Oooo! I like the 'lemon-green the vaporous morning drips'
It reminds me of Plath's line about the sea during rainstorm: "Where it pours bean-green over blue"

It's freezing.
We've given fall a miss and headed straight into winter.

Parts of the UK are taking a battering at present.
80 flood warnings still in place, 300 homes flooded, hundreds more evacuated, road and rail links closed/ disrupted. Power cuts, school closures and even the closure of a blood-bank in Bristol. We had squally showers here, but nothing much more than a lazy topic of conversation. Although it meant I go a lift home from the Doctors as it was squalling at the time ![]()

PDX has had a long string of beautiful sunny days, but some rain is predicted for the weekend.
But getting outside just before sunrise tomorrow morning will give us yet another nice array of bright stars and two planets... |
