Rained Out


So much for the big blue umbrella.  Sunday evening, it filled with towering storm clouds.  The only creatures interested in my painting were a couple chiggers crawling around on the canvas, between blue lines.  Their cousins were busy sucking my blood.  Suddenly the heavy heat broke, and I scrambled to pack up.  The canvas bucked so hard in the wind, I could hardly wrestle it to the car. I hoped my easel wouldn't act as a lightning rod. Big fat drops pelted the windshield on the way home.
