Ready for rain

We had a warm rain shower last night about dinnertime, and then a bright sunset-- beautiful. And it smelled so good falling on the parched grass. The weather report says we may still have some days in the 80's for the first week of fall.

I was walking around Nordstroms the other day-- as usual just looking not buying. There was a rack of ultra-chic designer raincoats with this sign: City Coats. How elegant! It made me want to buy a $300 "city" jacket I didn't even need.

But I did buy a new "city coat" for Sizzle to fit in with her new city friends. No cold rain on HER back this winter! (And it was a bargain compared to that Nordstroms jacket.)
