I woke up around one in the morning. There was a flash of lightening and crack of thunder, then the rain came. When you live in south Texas, the sound of rain at any time of day is welcomed. I especially like a thunderstorm and rain at night. I was off to dream world within minutes. The storm was over when my alarm sounded. When I walked outside, there was a fresh smell to earth. Rain during a hot summer’s night and the fresh smell of the earth, things to be grateful for.
