Rain...

Falling in love is like rain.
It's unpredictably, but there are always signs before it 
completely falls; and the only thing you can do it to let it rain....

Not unusual for it to rain here in South Florida.  Especially during the summer.
Rain inundates south Florida A man rides his scooter along a flooded road. Torrential 
rains a few days ago prompted flash-flood warnings and delayed flights at all 
three of south Florida’s major airports. Flooding  also closed some schools. 


When I see something like this it is hard to believe that the 
streets are this flooded.  This is not far from us.  This is A1A on the beach
in Fort Lauderdale.  Just a few minutes drive from us.  We have had some rains
in our area also, but there was no flooding reported.


On the other hand, Arvid and I were walking downtown along the New River
not so long ago and the tide was extremely high.  The water was already coming up 
to the streets.


Rain is good, but rain and flooding does disrupt peoples lives.
Damages are often more than one would think.  Some countries are not
that fortunate.  Lives are lost and then you are talking a whole new ball game.

Stay dry everyone for there is still lots of rain coming...



You say you love rain, but you use an umbrella to walk under it. 
You say you love sun, but you seek shade when it is shining. 
You say you love wind, but when it comes you close your window...
