Rain or Shine

Coming up to Santa Cruz is getting closer to the clouds. Today , I was struggling with the rain heavily dropping on my lenses. Could not see anything. Even people were  disappearing from  the streets finding  refuge in the cafes. So, there I went. A smiling guy welcomed me.

How are you doing? Good , I said. And  you?

Fantastic. Its raining! It has not been raining for so long.It feels  good!

So I sat there, with people coming in and out of the cafe,  in there rubber boots with there laptops, and cappuccinos.

Climbing up to Bonny Doon , at dark , in the fog, under the rain, the redwoods were discreetly showing up ,  turn after pin turn. Gigantic , and serene  just a few miles from Silicone Valley. That’s what I love about this country: High tech,  and   mighty nature next to each others.

Have a good one!
