Wednesday, September 03, 2003 Rain moved in this evening, slowly getting heavier and heavier. The hills have gradually been disappearing as the rainfall became more intense. Then about 30 minutes ago the air outside turned lavender. Not just the light -- the air. Not red, not purple, not rose. Lavender. Could be light from the sunset filtered thorugh the layers of overcast, could be something about all the airborne water spread the light, carried it through air that would otherwise have been gray. Producing a vast expanse of softly glowing colored light above the valley. Lavender. Like designer rain, like a funkily ethereal version of the area's green, undulating slopes and wide sky. Not your standard northern Vermont fare. It finally faded away about 15 minutes ago as the overall light dimmed in advance of nightfall. This world of ours. You never know for sure what it's got planned from one minute to the next. rws 7:53 PM [+]
