Thursday Rain

Mornin'!  It's 60° this tranquil, rainy, fragrant, dark morning on the island.  It's not pouring...just a light steady shower.  The bedroom windows were opened slightly and there's something cozy and comforting about the sound of a light rain coming down.  Add to that the soft sounds of the ocean's roar and aroma seeping into the dark room and not much can top that.  Oh well...so much for that lovely, peaceful moment as the daily tasks at hand are fast approaching.  It'll be a rainy Thursday at least until later this afternoon.  The winds (once they begin) will come from the SW and shift from the NW at 20-25mph +gusting bringing with it a cold front and much chillier temps (40s) for this evening and not much higher than 50° for tomorrow.  So far, the weekend's looking sunny and dry and a wee bit on the chilly side.
High tide:10:27a.m.
Low tide:4:39p.m.
Ocean temp:58°
Sunset:4:53p.m.

I like seamlessly coming to wakefulness without an alarm clock blaring. Sometimes sounds, as you've described, are instrumental in that transition for me. Nice post, Kathy, very nice.

Thanks Jimbo. And, I did just that this morning...wakefulness without the alarm going off. If it were like that every morning, these transitions wouldn't be notable.
