Rain stopped early afternoon and the sun came out. Got my first chance to sit out on the deck this year w/o a jacket. Cool enough still to be able to sit on the sunny side. I donned sunglasses, shucked my shoes, brought out the CD player so I could listen to my audio book, picked up a Pepsi, stuck my phone in one pocket, placed a few dog treats in another. By the time I got out on the deck a black cloud was overhead and it was sprinkling again. I decided a little rain was not going to deter me and the cloud moved on within a few minutes. Threw treats for the dog to catch (or sniff out if she missed). Then she lay on the deck to watch over the meadow. The book is a good one - werewolf folklore, an escaped psychopath, people trapped by a landslide at a modern day castle, seething grudges, and the bodies start dropping. Enough wind to keep the mosquitoes at bay. What better way to pick up that extra vitamin D the doc wants me to get.
