Rain, finally!

Lovely, lovely rain-swollen cumulus clouds over all of central Virginia--hooray! We had rain last night and sporadically thoughout the day today with more forecast for tonight and tomorrow. Here is a view of the sky at about 12:15 pm facing south with light winds from the west and scattered showers which landed on me and this little watercolor.

There is no blue sky peeking through these beauties. They are low and heavy clouds moving along and dropping rain as they will. This was painted at Armour House to the tune of "Turkey in the Straw" (great fiddle version) from an ice cream truck in a nearby neighborhood.
