Yesterday we had a lot of thunderstorming going on. I had wanted to walk, and did after getting other things done. I spent a few hours out in the rain. It went from mild to heavy, back and forth. A few claps of thunder that I could feel the sound it was so loud. I at first jumped over the puddles and heavy waters flowing through the streets quickly, some probably 6 inches deep. Some yards were flooded, and the drainage creek under the road was flowing so much I couldn't see any of the sediment, and things moved by so fast it was hard to see what they were. After a while, however, I was so soaked it didn't matter, and I'd just trudge on through the water. My shoes weren't designed for this, so I felt the cold water tickle my feet and the inside of the shoes sloshing. I got used to it, it was fun. I'm just glad I didn't bring my ipod nano. It made me happy walking in the rain. I really needed that mood-booster.
