Rain! At long last, rain. I can't remember a drier April. The unremitting heat and light was making the forest into an alien place, the dessicated forest floor loud with last year's leaf fall. In North Carolina, they drive into telephone poles when there's a dusting of snow. In Northern Pennsylvania, we drive into telephone poles when the sun comes out. We're not equipped for all this waterless light, and it's nice, at least to have our wonted gray skies back for a day. I thought it would never rain again, and all that infernal sunlight was making me crazy. Am I the only person who finds too much light depressing and annoying?
