A Perfect Rainy Day

It was a perfect rainy day for painting, drinking chai tea and dreaming up new projects.

I got a lot of work done today and afterwards my painting area was a mess. Below is a photo of the aftermath.

The weatherman says we have a whopper of a storm headed our way this weekend bringing several inches of rain and possibly hurricane force winds, so we are battening down the hatches in preparation for this storm.

They are also expecting power outages so if I don’t post this weekend you will know what happened.

“The wind began to moan in hollow murmurs, as the sun went down carrying glad day elsewhere; and a train of dull clouds coming up against it, menaced thunder and lightning. Large drops of rain soon began to fall, and, as the storm clouds came sailing onward, others supplied the void they left behind and spread over all the sky. Then was heard the low rumbling of distant thunder, then the lightning quivered, and then the darkness of an hour seemed to have gathered in an instant”.
