“Rainy days should be spent at home with a good book and a cup of tea” - Calvin and Hobbes

The average rainfall for May is 4 - 5 inches, so far this month we’ve had 10 inches. We’ve enjoyed more tea than usual and I’ve enjoyed catching up on my reading. I took this photo yesterday morning looking out my front door.

Beautiful I love the rich gold in the light of the street light ( I assume !! ) and its reflection in the puddles !

[Bep]

Beautiful golden light.

This would be an excellent entry for the Half and Half. But besides that, it's a striking image full of lovely hues. Oh and do love the caption.

[KWind]

Nice golden light!

@rhernan I thought about tagging it for the half and half but decided it was really more one third, one third, one third. Smile.

[Lou Ann]

@beryl It was so dark from the rain clouds the street light really lit up the scene!

[Ingrid]

Love the color and your composition! We haven't had that many rain days only when it rained it rained bad...

[Karly]

Love your quote! This image looks more light twilight than daytime. Beautiful tones.

I love the lighting in this. You sure are getting a lot of rain. I also love the quote.

Gorgeous light and love the quote - we are all Calvin and Hobbes fans in this house :)

[Taffy]

Wow -- I like the reflection and the golden lava look to this.

[Lou Ann]

@taffy it’s an iPhone X “live” photo, so I thought it was a tad blurry! Thank you for saying lava, I like that!

[Chocolate Socks]

Very pretty- I think our rainfall quota is 70% more than the last three Springs combined. I keep saying the East Coast is the new West Coast! Good shot.
