Water Water....Everywhere!!
Sunday presented an interesting dilemma. Should we carry out a few household chores and basically have a quiet day at home….or should we BUILD AN ARK????
Oh yes, we had rain. This was not normal rain either…this was rain of biblical proportions. At one point it was raining UPWARDS after it had hit the ground so hard.
Unfortunately, when the deluge began, we were not safely under cover of bricks and mortar. Oh no….we were in the middle of the local park with our canine companion. It had been overcast but dry when we set out, but by the time we got back we were beyond wet. We were soaked….saturated, and at one point I believe I began to develop gills and flippers.
Of course the one member of the household with fur decided this was all very amusing, and wouldn’t it be a jolly hoot to stand in the hallway upon our return and shake off 8 gallons of water along with 4 lbs of dirt. All this before she turns to us with a look that says ‘Hey, I’m a dog. It’s what we do!’
