So yesterday was rather fun.

Holly’s church had a picnic at a nearby park, and so we went to
that.  Whilst there, it rained very hard.  You might consider
that odd, since this is Texas, and you would be right.  Anyway,
due to it not raining often here I guess the ground doesn’t absorb
water so fast.  this little stream of water rose a LOT, to the
point that it was as deep as I am tall at the deepest point.  It
was also moving pretty fast and powerfully.  Anyway, at first we
got in where it was deeper… to see how deep it was.  I don’t
know why really, seemed like a good idea at the time i guess. 
Then, we got in further upstream, where this smaller bridge was
submerged in water which was crashing around it… we’d get in there
and ride the current downstream till shortly before the other
bridge.  It was a really fun time.

Just thought I would share.

See you folks back in MD soon

P.S. It’s true, Texas isn’t all that great, but, it’s not all that bad either.
