It was a regular cloudburst out there! It was coming down so hard it was raining sideways and it would even keep changing direction too. I was trying to hustle this morning, there was a tornado watch so I needed to get out, get the run done, and get back. I heard the tornado sirens when I was running which I think means tornado warning but I was already half way through the route. And it was coming down!! I remember thinking to myself, "how could I possibly get any wetter?" And of course it was too late then, you can't take back the thought, Mother Nature had been inadvertently challenged which meant I would find out that I could indeed get wetter. Soaked right down to my drawers and then some, and add to that some moron in a truck that was way too close to the curb caught all that water and sent that my way too. I really don't need any help getting wet thank you very much! I didn't have any kind of high expectations about what I'd find today and I didn't see OneMoreNutInTheRoad or any pig-iron really except for that shiny washer. Then there was the coinage. Even with all the water everywhere, I still managed to 'hit for the cycle' (penny,nickel, dime,quarter), three times even. I kind of figured when I found that penny right off the bat where a shopping center driveway hit Rufe Snow, that it was going to get interesting. Well, a big thank you Creator of all things for all these little blessings, and more importantly for getting me out and back safely. Yeayuh!
