I have a nice cool breeze coming in my living room window and with it is the smell of rain. The wind is blowing some and the sky is clouding up. It is so relaxing here tonight. I turned the swamp cooler off as I don't need it tonight. I do hope it rains and maybe there will be some thunder and lightening too. Do you like the smell of rain?

I don't mind it, but I like the smell of sunshine a lot more. Lol! All I have to do is stick my head outside right now, and I can smell all the rain I want.

It is different when one gets a lot of rain. Ok, I am sending sunshine your way.

I think it is good for the soul. I have had people tell me that they can't smell the rain. Do you think that is possible?

I like the smell of rain and this is what I feel now, it's raining, not a lot, but enough to water the garden.

Lucky you. It didn't rain here last night but I can still smell it in the air.

That sounds like a lot of fun. Did most of them catch on to the smell of rain?

Ooh yes! How relaxing to smell rain. Or hear it! I like it except it puts me in a mood to curl up with a book and not get anything done!

There is nothing wrong with that. Maybe the rain is meant to be so you can relax.

I don't like the smell but I like the cool breeze which accompanies the rain.

The breeze is comforting too. I am enjoying a nice cool breeze this evening.
