I showed up at the station to do my show this evening, and found the “On Air” light on, but the door locked and the other lights off inside. Some days are like that.
In fact, the theme for this week’s show is Rain. It’s been raining a lot here in Central Ohio. lately You’ve heard the saying, April showers bring May flowers. I’m also reminded of one of Martin Luther King’s favorite Bible quotes, “Let justice run down like water, And righteousness like a mighty stream.”
Here’s a set of wet, wonderful, or reflective tunes for your next rainy day.
