A rainy day calls for… Delaying the clean-up of the yard, being sure to take an umbrella with you when it is time to take your daily required exercise walk, and the making of some nifty donuts based on the recipe used by the old Chicken Shack Restaurant once located in Red Bluff. The aroma of such donuts wafts through the house enticing anyone within to wander to the kitchen and snitch at least a couple donuts. If the sun refuses to come through, the hungry donut eater continues to read his or her latest novel. It seems the dark day gives permission to leave all the demand- ing tasks. It is justified to skip a few "I have too do's" , sink into a book and bask by the glowing fireplace. A little afternoon napping occurs as the reader snuggles down with the book still open and resting on the reader's stomach. Intervening naps renew the reader and permits the intervening naps in order to justify more reading instead of allowing the mini dogs to tramp inside with mud on their feet. Yes, a rainy day brings a different agenda to the observers. We really do need some rain, yes the flower garden needs some attention, yes, the debris that the two pups have scattered around the back yard must be cleaned up…another day. Oh well, it must be that a rainy day means the master and the mistress of the house have the right to make choices of behavior. It is well known that when the sun shines, it draws people outside and into the pleasure of grooming the yard. For me, being a moun- tain born girl, the cool rain takes me on an imaginary trip to the high land. Thoughts of grow- ing up in the winter dur- ing the first eight years of my life brings me memo- ries of things gone by, friends, relatives, church- es, my Mom and Dad going dancing and taking me with them. Visiting Grandma and Grandpa Fields in Evergreen, Col- orado, where Grandma heated her iron on a wood burning kitchen stove, kept her mountain house as spic and span as possible, and always smiled and hugged me. Grandpa always told funny jokes to make me laugh. Aunt Pauline gave Me a pink crocheted dress she made; I still have it, these many, many years later. There were many more happy times in the mountains. Instead of dreading rainy days we just may need to take extra time to think of positive occurrences no matter the weather. Hmm, I wonder if those gong up to the mountains on 36 E are looking forward to quiet memo- ry time. Or maybe they may have to light candles in case the electricity is out. Imagine not being able to connect to a TV or computer in the Carolyn Barber mountains, not being able to iron clothes with an electric iron. Per- haps a few people have kept a hand iron to warm up on the wood stove. Oh yes, most of our clothes don't need to be ironed anymore. Oh how comfortable to sit by the big window with my book in my lap, I read it for a while and then gaze out the window to see the myriad of birds visiting the hanging bird feeders. Looking up from the book I see the numerous group of birds peck and pull on a rainy afternoon. *** "…Like a rose embower'd, In its own green leaves, By warm winds deflower'd, Till the scent it gives, Makes faint with too much sweet those heavy-winged thieves. Sound of vernal showers On the twinkling grass, Rain-awaken'd flowers—All that ever was joyous and clear and fresh—thy music doth surpass." By Percy Bysshe Shelley An excerpt from a long ago poem, a reminder of the need of all manner of creatures for the Spring rain.
