Rain Rain Please Come Today

It's almost the end of April and there's rain in the near future!  Yes, I'm excited for this because it will cool off these 98 degree temperatures we've been having and hopefully make things a little greener around here.  Today was cloudy and gloomy and the power flickered on and off a couple times. There was rain in a lot of places and even hail in Managua!  This obviously doesn't happen often as they don't use a particular word for hail, just pieces of ice falling from the sky :)  Funny to think about all the words we use to describe the different types of rain in Oregon...drizzle, pour, spray, mist, etc.  I love the rain.  I hope we get some very soon.  The rainy season here is supposed to be May-November so my wish may come true in the next week or so!  Maybe you guys in Oregon can send your rain over here & I'll trade you a little sun ;)
