Somewhere There's a Pot O'Gold


I actually love rain and this time of year, we have plenty of it. I love it when it stops raining and there is that moment when everything is quiet and the sun comes out and everything feels so lush. Saturday was a mix of rain and sun and we worked out in the garden all day. We just went indoors to bake and cook when it started raining and as soon as it stopped, we would go outside and pick up where we stopped. At some point, we were looking out the front door and a rainbow appeared over the hill directly across from our property. We have barn swallows nesting in birdhouses in our garden and this male swallow started swooping and circling the garden when the rain stopped and it was just this perfect moment during the day. The crabapple trees are blooming and they looked perfect with rain drops all over them and the color of the flowers are amazing.
