This post is more about a miracle than anything else. I'm sure everyone has heard about the terrible drought in California, right? While we have had a few showers, none have been enough to replace the water we don't have. Many of those rainstorms were around where I live, but didn't give us more than a few minutes of sprinkles.
Well, I got up tonight and what did I hear? Rain! A steady, down pour of rain. Thank You LORD! The sound of raindrops dinging off my aluminum patio cover sent a happy warmth through my entire body. I've always been a lover of rain, and cloudy days. I hope we have more soon.
On another topic, very much related to cloudy days, is my love of books. I'm more of a book hoarder or a bibliophile. Books make me happy. And while I do enjoy the convenience of my Kindle, I love printed books. So I thought I'd share some of my favorites.
