A Rainy Day in L.A.

It’s raining in Los Angeles. Quite a lot of rain is falling from the sky. It’s a straightforward, earnest rainfall. As if the rain were saying, “Okay it’s supposed to rain today so here it all is before that 1:30 lunch I have.”

I’m happy it’s raining. Not just because we are in a drought, but because I’m going on a six-mile hike this weekend and one of the reviews read, “great hike to do after a lot of rain. Very fragrant.” During a recent visit, my Dad and I took a hike in Franklin Canyon Park after a big rain, and it was indeed fragrant. I’m not native California plant specialist, but I believe it was the various sage bushes and possibly lemonade berry.

I wanted to share this song because it’s great for a rainy day.
