On My Mind Monday

Into each life some rain must fall.

- Henry Wadsworth Longfellow

Just as I was walking the kids into camp, the skies darkened and the rain began to fall. I sent T. Bone back to fetch the umbrella from the van. He didn't balk and so I concluded that chivalry is dead, but not entirely extinct. The rain was relentless and the fog along the lake dense making visibility a real white knuckling challenge. Standing water covered many streets just making a bad situation worse. I pulled into the parking lot late and sure that I would never be lucky enough to secure a covered spot on a day like today. I scored the last one proving that I may not be lucky, but my luck has not exactly run out, and I'm more than OK with that.
