After rain walk - March 2nd, 2014

The magnolia trees are blooming too soon since we still have more rain to come. It's not their fault though-it's been so warm and dry this winter I see everything from daffodils to the drooping tulips confused.
Listening to Sleep's "Jerusalem" for the first time and it's a good song for a wandering walk like today. I feel somewhat like a wandering Jew- searching for a Holy Land.
The wet smell of Elmwood Village and upper Claremont is fantastic and clean. I love it when it rains but none more so than afterwards. Everything's feels quiet and refreshed.
