After the Rain

It was a night of rain and thunderstorms, then a it poured all morning.  The great thing about all that rain was how it washed most things clean of pollen.  This last week or so, the pollen has been unreal.  One day I thought it was raining, only to realize it was just the wind kicking up the pollen.  Another day, I looked out the window and thought I was seeing fog... nope...  a gust of wind blew a thick cloud of pollen through the yard.  I've never seen anything like it...
So, let it rain!  We could use a bit of a clean-up. :)
