About Me

My photo
We are spending the summer in Spain and hoping that this simple blog will keep our friends and family informed about our activities. Of course, if you want to follow this in chronological order, you have to start at the bottom of the blog. Also, by clicking on any of the blog photos you should be taken to a Flickr page with additional images of our trip.

Rectangular slice of sky


Madrid 2009 215

Our apartment is on the top floor and on the interior of the building. The view to the outside world is limited. However, out our kitchen window we have this little slice of the sky. The sun shines in and the clouds roll by. Actually, rolling clouds is a clich'e. These clouds saunter, they amble, they are easing their way into siesta.

On our first day here the taxi driver told us that it had rained that morning. It has rained twice since then. I felt both of the drops on me. There were probably eleven drops in all of Madrid. A downpour. It would be impossible to explain Oregon weather to the Madrileños.
