My main vocation is as a home inspector, so I do a lot of traveling from property to property. Whenever I’m out, I’m always looking for picture-worthy possibilities.

I found a most beautiful aloe but couldn’t stop to take pictures, so I made a note of the address and stopped back by on the way home. Here is the aloe:

I was particularly happy today because it rained last night and into mid-morning. That allowed me to focus on the raindrops and get this picture:
