It is Sunday and almost late afternoon. It was raining before sunrise,and it is still raining now. The rain is falling steadily, as it has all day. No one in these parts ought to complain as it has been a long while since we have had a rainy day-and besides, rain makes the loveliest sound.

This day has been nothing short of glorious. The cold wind and rain have passed and were replaced with warm golden light that lit the trees up.

I am somewhat sensitive to the "a soldier" reference in most of the news articles. The result is now that we are embroiled in a donnybrook over the death of someone who is now being referred to in almost every account as "a soldier."
