Rain

We had a nice rain storm, about 30 minutes worth, thunder and lightning, some of the lightning crackly close.

I was asleep when the storm started. An hours' nap for older people contributes to longer living, which means for every nap I take, the more I will get down the line. I lay in bed for maybe seven minutes listening to thunder, lightning crack and rain.

Charlie the standard poodle was not asleep in the bedroom chair when I got up. As I was on my way to the bathroom, Charlie came walking from the toilet room. He does not like storms.

A good day. Good nap, good rain, a good old dog still around. Charlie, I mean.
