I met you in the Rain

I love the rain and don't mind living in Washington because of it.  The only thing I wish Washington had was thunderstorms and lightning like I remember when I lived in the midwest.  I love the rumbling of thunder and the flashing of the lightning bolts- a bit scary/exciting but quite the fantastic experience which I really do miss.  In Seattle, the rain is beautiful.  The city seems to be molded around the idea of rain and the scene in downtown Seattle is definitely one to not be missed!  I have to say though, the city at night when it's raining is my favorite, especially if you're in the Queen Anne area of Seattle, which is where I used to live.  Five minutes walking distance from the Space needle and 5 minutes driving distance from Pike place, it literally is the perfect place to live in Seattle without being smack dab in the middle of it.  Close enough to walk there, far enough to not have a problem parking! :-)  I met my boyfriend in Downtown Seattle and on our first date, I won't forget it, we went to the Irish Pub in Lower Queen Anne and then took a taxi to Downtown Seattle, where we played around the city and then found ourselves at Gameworks.  I'll never forget that night as the City started to liven up as the night grew darker.  The night didn't start out with rain, but rain always seems to present itself at random times in Seattle.  That night, was no exception.  We had a great time and I would have to say that this night in particular, with the rain falling in the city and where I lived I met my best friend in the rain.  Hence the name, "I met you in the rain".  Though this setting isn't necessarily in downtown Seattle it's a special place where the atmosphere lends itself to the reflections that rain create.  A place that can be found wherever you imagine yourself with the one you love.
This painting encapsulates the positivity that rain can bring when you're around your best friend and true love! :-)
