Drizzle gently

It's raining at Rancho Relaxo; not real rain but vertical drizzle which lends a gentle texture to the world but obscures the horizon so I can see maybe 10k and not the usual 150k.

Because of the angle of the rainfall I'm sitting under the canopy on the deck eating my first meal of the day in total dryness and it's really warm. It can't be breakfast because it's one in the afternoon.

And ... because I'm celebrating, the wine is going down quite well :)

Country life is different; I didn't put my wristwatch on at all yesterday. That must be the first time in 30 or 40 years and I had to email a friend to ask what day it was! Very relaxed and peaceful :)
