Sunshine

Yes, it's official. We saw the sun yesterday for a good part of the day. Of course, it didn't last, but it was glorious--shining brightly, then fogged in, then shining tentatively and then brightly again for hours before the thunder in the distance warned that we wouldn't close out the day without more rain. A few drops dampened a walk in Portland after dinner at a wonderful tapas bar, but the real rain held off until I was in bed, which is when it provided a soothing backdrop to sleep.

Keep this on the lowdown, but sunshine expected today and tomorrow as well. Crazy!
