Sincerely, Camille

Dear Glasgow Rain,

Thank you so much for all of the wonderful water that you give us. I greatly appreciate such lush and beautiful surroundings all day. Flowers, moss, grass and anything else that is green and grows fill our hearts and shine like emeralds for our eyes. Because of you I now know for sure that I need a striped pair of rain boots and a better and cuter raincoat than I had last winter. I can't wait to walk through the large puddles without fear of soggy waterlogged socks and shoes. I would also like to compliment you on your tricky weather today--you always keep me guessing. . . You! You gave us quite the unexpected showers and I was so prepared for the worst but it was surprisingly warm. I was hot all day and didn't have the option to change. I remember the time in April when you decided to let the sun shine for about 2 weeks and we all got ready for Summer weather in the Spring and then you left us for a good while. . . You.

I just want to give a teeny, tiny, wee reminder that July has come and, for the time being, you may rest your labors and we can resume our meetings at the beginning of September. But if the situation arises that you must come, I will welcome you and thank you still for all that you do for me. I love you and hope that you remember how much we appreciate your faithful work. A few great vacations spots could be Las Vegas, Death Valley or even Atlanta. I'm sure that Charla will welcome you with a hearty song in the rain!

Sincerely,

Camille
