Spring Rain

 And the rains came down............

Spending the afternoon in  my rocking chair porch sittin' with a good cup of hot coffee. Sitting here listening to the raindrops patter and the birds sing, such a great way to spend the afternoon.

It was a chilly day, and I dressed warm


Camellias in the rain:


"Raindrops keep falling on my head...." 
                                 .....1969, sung by B.J.Thomas

Everything getting washed clean

seeing some greenery......spring is finally here!

also found a whole other patch of the Carolina Jessamine I love so much
The Resurrection ferns starting to green up in the soft rain---they sure love rain




 Rainy evenings go perfectly with good old movies. My favorites are old Judy Garland ones.





I love the old musicals, the song and dance numbers are so fun!


The COSTUMES! and the hair-dos and the music!

Ray Bolger was the Scarecrow in the 'Wizard of Oz', right?











Do you like any old movies? I think my favorite two are "It's a Wonderful Life", and "Meet me in St. Louis", another Judy Garland film. I also love "Easter Parade", which I like to watch around Easter.

  1. like you said...we need a good rain every so often to cleanse things off. there is not much better than sitting on the porch in the rain, even if it is cold. the camellias are gorgeous, my spring blooms are just beginning to open...some are a little early!! i can't really say that i am a lover of old movies. my favorites are the wizard of oz and it's a wonderful life!! but it really depends on your definition of old!! i hope you are feeling well!!!
