Here Comes the Rain Again

There has not been a decent rainfall for weeks. Actually, the last real precipitaion we had was a snowfall. Fortunately, there has not yet been a draught, since we had so much snow last winter. This evening, when we were outside, we felt some drops of rain. We hope that a nice rain of many millimetres will fall tonight. All the growing things in our garden, in the forest and on the fields need rain now. We also need rain, since our water comes from our own well. It is not yet a desperate need, but rain tonight would be a nice thing. It is also rather cozy to lie down to sleep indoors when you can hear rain falling on the roof and windows.
