Drizzly, dreary rain

Well, it's drizzly & dreary outside, with little peek of sunshine, but I am expecting tomorrow to be fantastic. I say this because outside the window, in the rain, I can see our crabapple exploding into color ... our allia reaching to the skies ... and the peonies about ready to split out of their round heads. I am crossing my fingers we make it to the Arboretum tomorrow, amidst our many errands to run. April showers bring May flowers ... the showers are just a bit later than usual this year, so the flowers are too. I can hardly wait for the lilacs to have their 2 weeks of glory. Lilacs are my favorite flower & favorite scent!
