Hi friends and fellow bloggers,
These are a just a few photos taken earlier in the week on a cloudy but bright day. By the time this post is published we'll be back to rain.
Do you remember the childhood verse that went "April showers bring May flowers". I had to look it up to remind myself of the verses.
April Showers Bring May Flowers song lyrics for kids :
Pitter-patter raindrops
Falling from the sky.
Here is my umbrella,
To keep me dry.
April showers
Bring May flowers
April showers
Bring May flowers
When the rain is over and
The sun begins to glow,
Little flowers start to bloom
And grow and grow and grow.
April showers
Bring May flowers
April showers
Bring May flowers

When I reviewed the lyrics I realized that I never actually sang this song but used to hear the line 'April showers bring May flowers" a lot. It was just something people always said to remind themselves as to why there was a lot of rain in the spring.
Where I live now we don't just get showers in April. The rain starts in October and follows us into April. Yet every year we seem to also have water restrictions which come earlier and earlier in the summer. I think it's because these days there tends to be a lot less snow on the mountains. We rely on the snow for replenishing the water supply. Let's hope this summer won't be so dry.
Take care everyone and have a wonderful weekend and a blessed Easter.
