I was in the library on campus today when I saw ripples in the reflecting pools in the courtyard. At first I thought it was just air bubbles created by the sweeper that was in the pool. I looked up again and several of my students were staring out the window. I follwed their gaze and could see that there actually was rain falling--falling lightly, but enough to create the ripples in the water. I had this urge to run outside and stand in it. I haven't seen rain since I left Austin almost three months ago. It didn't last long, but it was a lovely thing to see.
Next time I am out the door!
