We just received more breeze which dried things out even more than they had been before. The closing of factories has made the air the best it's been in the eleven years we have been here, and the quality of light has been great. But the drought continues, and that is worrisome. Tianjin usually gets most of its rain in July and August, but May and June usually bring some too. The forecast calls for scattered storms the next four or five days, but they are generally very scattered. But it's been great for taking photos, though: no pollution and humid haze to deal with.

And it leaves me wondering, did it rain or not? I like both the prose/poem and the photo. And it leaves me wondering, did it rain or not?
