for the first Friday night car show of the season.
It was beautiful all day - 65 degrees and sunny. My 8 year old son and I hopped in the BE and headed to the show which was just a few miles away. It just before 5pm.
About twenty minutes into the show, the gray clouds rushed in. The rain started to fall - at first just a sprinkle, but then harder and harder.
No top on the BE.
We jump back in the car, and the rain turns to down-pour, which hastily turns to hail. Smack, smack, smack - the hail hurt as it smacked me in the face. My nose and ears stinging, I used a towel to wipe the windshield... The kid is hiding beneath his jacket.
All the way home, we got the honks and the thumbs up from laughing people in oncoming cars...
When I walk in, my wife tells me that someone had called to see if we were going to the show. I suspect it was BillM At the time of the call, it was only cloudy, so it sounded as if he might venture out. BillM - I hope you changed your mind about coming to the show!
Wow. What an adventure.
