lotsofplantsLeft work a bit early because I am absolutely exhausted. I suspect I'm fighting something. I hope I win.
However, that meant I was walking home during some of the oddest precipitation I've ever seen. Sort of a cross between snow and hail--solid 1/4 inch wide white lumps but with a lot of air in them, so that they fell fairly slowly and didn't sting your face when they hit. Also, they were all shaped like diamonds--a cone with a gently rounded base. Looking closely, it almost looked like they had grown like snail shells, wrapping around and around. Very pretty.
