2.5+ inches of rain fell over the course of what seemed like only a few hours.  The day was so dark, you would have thought the sun had forgotten to rise.  During a brief break, I set off into the woods to look for rain drops.  The landscape was littered with winter, tangled vines, bare branches, and decaying leaves.  The rain found plenty to attach itself to, offering tiny glimpses of reflections and sparkle in an otherwise sad sight.
