The Promise.....

I woke during the night to hear the sound of torrential rain. A band of heavy rain crossed the country dropping deluges on the way from west to east. The weather had cleared when Maisie and I set off on our before dawn walk. It was dark enough for me to wear a head lamp. The weather forecasters had promised a fine day after the rain. Their promises came true with early golden sunshine and a warm breezy autumn day.
