Weather Eye We're traipsing, dog and human, round the park lake, alert for raindrops and the darkening drift of rainclouds. Everyone else, dogs and humans, are in raincoats, some with umbrellas pessimistically at the ready. My neighbour's Jack Russell, Buddy, assertive, puny, looks such a wimp in his hoodie - which reads along the spine: I'm tougher than I look. If there were dog- umbrellas, Buddy would be toting one. We're not tough, in the shadowing first shower, trotting home now, leashed together, at a fast clip, one of us soon breathless, for late breakfast. From the chilly rain-spotted balcony we can see Monterey pines flinching; beyond, with the mind's eye, see the park lake in such weather getting wetter and Wetter.
