Rose in the rain

We actually, finally, blessedly, got a little bit of rain overnight, and while it was hardly the deluge that was predicted—the lurid forecast suggested as much as a couple of inches, but we only wound up with less than half-an-inch—these days, every drop is more than welcome. Maybe, just maybe, it's a sign that the drought just could end eventually. Torrents or not, the newly emerged Rose of Sharon blossoms bore raindrops this morning  and the result required stopping every time I spotted a flowering shrub to document the reality of genuine showers, to say nothing of gorgeous and intricate blooms.
