Stormy Weather

Neither wind nor rain or dark of night will keep domino players from their game. It was threatening serious bad weather here in our county this afternoon but John went on to the next town to his weekly domino game. He did ask me if I was going to be afraid. Ha! Well the news media did convince me when they cancelled all their regularly scheduled programs to monitor the weather for several hours in south texas and mostly in our county. I gathered up my cell phone, battery operated radio, and a heavy quilt and put them into the bath tub. I sat and waited. Several people from different towns called the tv station I was listening to while I went from window to window and back to the chair. I was kind of amazed how the news lady would try to get the caller to say how bad the weather was and everyone would say well it rained quite a bit. They kept mentioning possible golf ball size hail, possible tornados, and wind 80 miles an hour with possible gust up to 100 miles an hour. Thank goodness I never had to get in that bath tub and we didn't get anything except rain. Some towns did get some wind and hail but it wasn't too bad. Didn't faze the domino players they played all afternoon.
