30 Days of Biking - April showers

We have had light rain showers yesterday and today during the commute. In the morning there was just enough rain to make greens greener and bring out an earthy, damp smell in the air. Crossing the Lake Street - Marshall Avenue bridge between St Paul and Minneapolis there was this really dramatic sky as the rain moved off to the East.


I took a pic and then just stared for a minute as those low clouds cruised by. By the time I arrived downtown (you can just see the buildings peaking over the trees about 4 miles away), the sky had changed completely. It was bright, windy, and the ground completely dry by the time I returned in the evening.

  1. I love this shot! One of the best parts about commuting by bike/walking must be the scenery. It's not the same looking out the windows.
