My porch is too small to do anything but walk in the front door. But I get a lot of pleasure listening to the sounds out my library window...

There was blinding rain coming down in sheets on my way home tonight, one road was blocked by fire trucks, must have been an accident, but it was tough to see with the rain and all the flashing lights.
