Incoming Rain....

Maisie, the Labradoodle and I went for a long walk this morning. We followed tracks alongside the upper Taylor River that we had not walked for months. The sun was shining to start with and we met up with lots of dogs and their owners. A bank of ominous looking rain clouds started building in the north as we neared the end of our walk. A young woman cyclist, with a small dog running beside her, swept past us. Her arms were bare, as if dressed for summer, in contrast to my several layers of warm Merino clothing. The young seem not to feel the cold.
