Sunset?

My friend and I walked this morning and although I left my house and the heavy clouds were merely spitting, by the time I walked the five blocks to meet her in the park, the rain had begun in earnest. And continued, getting heavier and heavier, until at one point we were walking past the Presidio Golf Club and the rain was pelting our newly purchased Safeway umbrellas (thank goodness we made that little detour). When we finally reached my office, the sun was beaming through the clouds. The same sun that had been shining in my bedroom window when I woke up, this morning. Before the torrent hit.

And, this evening, that rain was but a vague recollection as I gazed toward the beach at the sun setting....
