Deluge

Was out getting some things out of my car—lunch box, planning book, mail—when the first fat raindrops started. Right after I got inside with the goods and the dog, it started pouring, accompanied by bright lightning and very loud thunder, right on top of us. I was reading with Danny when the loudest part of the storm hit, and I kept telling him to speak up so I could hear him over the thunder.

Danny was funny. He wasn't scared of the thunder but he was worried that it would keep him up all night. I assured him that it would not last long. Half an hour later, it was over.

Now this is the New Hampshire I remember from a decade ago. A hot day, mixed clouds and sun, and then and intense, short storm in the afternoon or evening.

I have more stories to tell, with picture, but not any time to tell them until either tomorrow or Thursday, depending on theater happenings.

Bear with me; this show has been more difficult than many of the others, both in its complexity and my ability to keep up on it. But we'll be opening soon and then things will calm down.

A little.
