Bright start, but...

Actually a bright start with some nice morning sun and blue sky, but the forecasted rain arrived by 11ish right on schedule and stuck with us for the rest of the day.  Not a complete washout, and when it was raining it was a lightish drizzle, but nevertheless a day for being indoors.  Staying cool.
