Rainbow

   We had a nice cool rain this afternoon, and the air is now fresh and clean.  There was a nice rainbow high in the East South East.  It reminded me of the many times I would see one over the big chickencoop in Sugar Grove. 

   The weather reports have been calling for nearly certain rain showers each day, but, so far, they are often false alarms.  Yet one must have an umbrella when out, just in case.  But soon we will have steady rainy days. 

   I enjoy watching squirrels and birds from the back veranda.  Having my cataract surgery done was an excellent decision.  It is easier to use binoculars, and I don’t have to fumble with glasses.  Aristotle was right:  one of our great delights is our sense of sight. 

   I am a reading addict, so I must force myself to get up and exercise regularly.  Tomorrow is Sunday, my favorite morning for my stair climbing march down by the bridge, since there’s nobody on the sidewalks and it’s at its most quiet. 

   I’m feeling strong enough now to have my prostate surgery, which I will try to schedule for some time in July.
