Dry

There are clouds in the sky this evening, and it seems strange. I've clearly recovered from my stint in mildewy Oregon, because I find myself hoping it will rain. I can't remember the last time I felt that way. I guess three straight weeks of lovely dry sunshine and a small wildfire will change anyone's attitude about the desirability of moisture.

I put laundry out on the line today, and the first pillowcase was dry by the time I clothespinned the last sheet. They now smell like the mountains. Granite and ponderosa pine and heat.
