I'm a HUGE fan of rain, storms, etc., so I absolutely love #5! In fact, I may steal it for my tagline. Just out visiting via T13 :)

I love rain and quotes so clicking on your link was sheer delight. I WISH we weren't in the middle of a drought here in So Cal because I'd LOVE to go walking in the rain as Rachel Carson suggests ;--)
Hugs and blessings,

It touched upon a story about a mother and daughter falling for the same man...and how as a parent being devoid of the manual for bringing up a teenaged child learns all by her life, or looking at her sister but the learning happens only when she brings her up to it :) At times it was a bit boring and dont worry you will easily skip through those sections and not even lose anything...and also at times there are too much of text and you are pestered to move ahead but you have to read them also...See even I couldnt put it rightly...I mean some sections where the story moves very fast but the description is too verbose...otherwise I simply lived through all... Recommended as a passtime novel :)

SUNRISE or SUNSET! Well it was sunset :) 6. SUNSET This one captured perfectly though both are at different locations :) 7. ANOTHER SUNSET This one was the most colorful sunset :) 8. NIGHT BEAUTY How could I leave behind the Moon... 9. THE FALL Most magnificent one although it got covered by the fog... 10. UN-NATURAL Yup this was unnatural one but see the clear blue sky :) 11. SUN AT NIGHT The lamp, though again unnatural, lit the p...
