R A I N beautiful R A I N

Saturday (July 25) was a cloudy day but no rain. It was in the forecast, but hubby and I decided to go for a ride on the Skyline Drive. Since obtaining a "lifetime" Senior pass (for only $10), we go more often. {SMILE}

At one overlook, we saw that it was raining down in the Valley. In this shot, you can see the where the rain begins. Shortly after this shot, the weather cleared slightly and then...

 

we watched the storm clouds come up from the Valley

 

coming closer...

 

and closer...

 

and closer...

 

and closer

 

until it poured buckets of gorgeous rain!!! Made for a very interesting trip!
