Rain

"In Vancouver, there are many varieties of rain, but the most common…is the kind that tries to convince you it isn’t even there, the kind that is so thin it makes the windshield wipers squeak." ~ From “Certainty” by Madeleine Thien

This was one of the loveliest books I've ever read...that it's set in my city & speaks about a little bakery in Chinatown that my family has been going to forever, makes it that much better. It's also a poignant reminder of our finite time on earth with the people we love.

Fitting day to post this as it was pouring in the morning...one of the many varieties of Vancouver rain.
