Spring rain always sounds like it’s full of energy. Storms are forecast here tomorrow, and high winds. And yes, smile 🙂

It’s getting warmer here, but still a chilly wind in the afternoons, and of course storm on the way.

Thanks for letting me know about the problem! What happened was that an old anti-spam plugin stopped working after a software update. A replacement seems to be working well now.
